Poms 1/1 after 2 balls. Tahir opened the bowling.

Would have paid good odds if you picked him as first wicket taker.

SA must have watched footage of the 1992 CWC team and Dipak Patel opening the bowling

This game shows how good England is. Lose an early wicket but keep on going.

Good to see you're still about Mr Xpat. Sobering thought that the role was almost 20 years ago ....

About the time I slowly started to lose interest in cricket as there was just too much of the damn stuff..

@hydro11 proteboks haven't bowled that well. Tahir one over too many I think. When the line has been good, the length is ordinary and vice versa

True but this outfield is very fast and boundaries aren't that big.

Big double breakthrough. South Africa will be on top if they can nab another here. Their 4th and 5th bowlers have really stood up for them.

[Crucial]

Saffas 2 down, 1 retired hurt and very lucky on a shelled catch.

Will the England bowling depth hold out though? Already Ali is going for nearly 7s

[Crucial]

Saffas getting reamed here.

Pretty awesome catch from Stokes along the way.

[sparky]

South Africa 207 all out

England win by 104 runs

Highlight: Stokes with one of the greatest catches in the history of Cricket.

Skynet let the link show then vanish ? whaaaaat ? it's obviously telling me to stop procrastinating and do some paperwork,

[NTA]

It was a bloody good catch, but hardly the greatest ever. That is just Nasser Hussain talking shit from a nervous English commentary box

It was weird technique, despite batting left handed he obviously doesn't rate his ability to catch left handed. Great grab though.

[Siam]

John Dyson catch with extra camera angles

@MN5

The Stokes catch is a lot better than that one because of the faster velocity the ball is travelling off Phehlukwayo's bat.
