The match is nicely balanced, but South Africa are in the better position I think.

Yes even more now. The 4th day went South Africa's way and the game looks up for England now. I can't see them winning from this position. England 16/2 at the close needing another 330 on the last day.

England will find it hard to bat anywhere close to the required run rate to win or bat out a full day to even draw.

I think we can safely say the title of World No 1 will be gone by close of play tomorrow. Just can't see them batting their way out of this.

Even rain can't save England now

England have performed at 70% of their best,I had SA with a slight edge with a better balanced side,but home advantage should have made it closer than it has been.

The South African side played this song to the England team as they ran out today...
This was confirmed by a miss shot by Ian Bell and a cheap run out from James Taylor. You can accept defeat in any sport as long as you put up a fight, but this has just been a limp wristed half arsed attempt by England, the batting has been poor and the players just haven't really shown up.
