Proper fight back. 7 wickets in the first session. Well done.

Faf will be an automatic entrant, and Rabada and given exclusion...

So,I see it as Faf comes in for either JP or Be Bruyn. After the 1st innings, De Bruyn surely gets in ahead of Duminy. Added to this, we have a turning wicket and we still are yet to see JP turn his arm... he is clearly not being used as the general mentioning of he gives us the bowling option..... please selectors, make the right choice and drop JP, NOT De Bruyn...

With Rabada out, its either Morris or Olivier... with our obvious batting frailties, I sincerely hope we select Morris and he does add something to our batting department...

I wait and see to be amazed.....[/quote

Duminy is selected as a batsman.As such he should not even be on the tour.

Is Elgar not aware that after 80 overs you can get a 2nd new ball?

Open with de Kock, but they don't think out of the box

25/3 game over, time to drop Duminy for good

Yet another complete waste of a review. Plumb lbw andAmla goes for a review. They are like rabbits in the headlights, clueless. Well that's what you get when your best player decides to sit at home and keep himself fresh for his next IPL payday

Outplayed in all departments by a far superior team and with the England quick bowlers hardly bowling in the 2nd innings and with Rabada suspended and Philander just not fit enough it will be 2-0 in a weeks time at Trent Bridge..
