South Africa vs England 2015/16

De Villiers dropped on 5 by Joe Root.
Let us hope it does not prove costly.

All sorts of records broken I think today

Tea on the 3rd day and South Africa are 290/3. Well on the way to saving the follow-on although whether England would enforce it is another question.

What a slow & dull day's cricket. Only one wicket has fallen.

South Africa on 353-3 at close

This is a day that the England bowlers and fielders will want to forget
