2.5

Steyn to Cook, out Caught by Elgar!! Cook has fallen for it. Oh dear me. Look at Steyn roar. He's roaring his nerves out. Thankfully, his teammates mob him soon enough and subdue his screaming. The English skipper is suckered into nibbling at a back of a length delivery leaving him outside off stump. Hangs his bat away from the body to poke at it. Ends up fencing it at a comfortable height to second slip. It was the scrambled seam delivery from Steyn. Pitched and nipped away ever so slightly. Enough to take the edge. Hit him high on the bat as well which indicates some extra bounce. Cook c Elgar b Steyn 0(11)

Alex Hales c de Villiers b Steyn 10 22 0 0 45.45

6.5

Steyn to Hales, out Caught by de Villiers!! Steyn has another, and he's pumped. Doesn't feel shy to make it known. Loose from Hales. Not a ball to be driving. On a good length around the fifth-sixth stump, Hales aims an expansive cover-drive without moving his front foot across too much. Only succeeds in finding the edge resulting in a regulation take for the keeper. Steyn is off and away to punch the air in delight. Or anger. Or both. Hales c de Villiers b Steyn 10(22)

Nick Compton c de Villiers b M Morkel 85 236 8 0 36.02

85.5

M Morkel to Compton, out Caught by de Villiers!! Morkel is jumping around and Compton is walking. Compton is walking. There must have been just a feather. His fort has finally been breached. He raises his bat to the galleries while heading to the pavilion and is lauded with a standing ovation for his efforts. It was another short ball, an innocuous short ball which looked to be harmless with the line outside off. Compton tries to pull it away. Instead, only manages a faint bottom edge through to the keeper. Compton c de Villiers b M Morkel 85(236) [4s-8]

Joe Root lbw b D Piedt 24 37 2 1 64.86

18.1

D Piedt to Root, out Lbw!! What a bowling change, Hashim Amla. Who would have thought that an off-spinner would get a top batsman out with his first delivery on an overcast day? Nothing really great about this delivery, but Root misjudged the line and length of this one. He should have been forward to this conventional off-spinner that pitched outside off stump. It turned and beat Root's defence on the back foot, went past the bat and the front pad to hit him in line with the off stump on the back pad. The appeal was pretty confident from the Proteas and umpire Aleem Dar thought about it for a while before raising the finger. Root decided to review, but Hawk-Eye showed that the ball would have clipped the top of middle stump. Root lbw b D Piedt 24(37) [4s-2 6s-1]

James Taylor c de Villiers b Steyn 70 137 9 1 51.09

63.3

Steyn to James Taylor, out Caught by de Villiers!! What a champion you are, Dale Steyn. This 125-run stand was really frustrating the Proteas and their spearhead has broken it. Lapse in concentration from James Taylor, who played very well to make a valuable 70. Nothing but a short of length delivery outside off stump, didn't do much, just held its line. Taylor moved across and tried to defend, ended up poking at it and got an outside edge which was easily held by the keeper. Taylor walks off to a good round of applause from the crowd and he raises his bat to acknowledge them. James Taylor c de Villiers b Steyn 70(137) [4s-9 6s-1]

Ben Stokes c Duminy b M Morkel 21 34 4 0 61.76

71.3

M Morkel to Stokes, out Caught by Duminy!! That's a strange dismissal. Stokes batted positively all morning and now he perishes attempting a boundary. Nothing really great about this delivery from Morkel. Short of a length angled in on off stump line, Stokes went for the pull, probably the ball just moved away from him, took the top-edge of the bat and flew in the air, the fielder at gully took a few steps back and completed a simple catch. So South Africa have got the early wicket they wanted this morning. Stokes c Duminy b M Morkel 21(34) [4s-4]

Jonny Bairstow (wk)c Elgar b Kyle Abbott 41 56 6 0 73.21

90.4

Kyle Abbott to Bairstow, out Caught by Elgar!! And now, England's last hope of crossing 300 is walking back to the pavilion. The last 40-45 minutes have completely turned the game around. This could be the period which has a bearing effect on the match. Abbott pumps both his fists in delight. Length ball outside off, Bairstow is tempted into an ill-advised on-the-rise booming cover-drive. Gets a healthy outside edge which flies to the right of Elgar at second slip. He dives across, goes with both hands and plucks it comfortably. Came at a comfortable height to him but was traveling. Bairstow c Elgar b Kyle Abbott 41(56) [4s-6]

Moeen Ali c de Villiers b M Morkel 0 4 0 0 0.00

87.3

M Morkel to Moeen Ali, out Caught by de Villiers!! Morkel has got his man. They are checking for the no-ball as always. And he's so close but just OK. So the hosts are fighting back and Morkel is leading the charge. The angle across the left-hander from over the wicket does the trick. Leaving Ali on a back of a length in the channel just outside off. Ali thinks he needs to play at it but what he doesn't do is get the back foot across to cover the line. Ends up nicking it to de Villiers. Moeen Ali c de Villiers b M Morkel 0(4)

Chris Woakes lbw b M Morkel 0 1 0 0 0.00

87.4

M Morkel to Woakes, out Lbw!! Absolutely full and dead straight on middle. Woakes falls over looking to work it away on the on-side and is thudded below the knee-roll of the front pad. There was the angle created which appeared to take the ball down the leg-side. But just about clips the leg-stump. Morkel is cooking! On a hat-trick now. Woakes lbw b M Morkel 0(1)

Stuart Broad not out 32 33 5 0 96.97

Steven Finn lbw b Steyn 12 33 1 0 36.36

100.1

Steyn to Finn, out Lbw!! Behold the majesty of the Steyn gun. Finally, gets one on target. Swinging back in, full on middle. Too good for Finn. He falls over on the flick and is hit near the knee-roll in front of middle. The only question would have been height. But it's good enough to take the bails. England all out for 303 and it will be Lunch. Steyn finishes with four to his name. Finn lbw b Steyn 12(33) [4s-1]

Stiaan van Zyl b Broad 0 2 0 0 0.00

0.2

Broad to van Zyl, out Bowled!! Broad is chuffed as he has made the incision in the very first over of the innings. It was poor judgment by van Zyl outside off. It was a back of a length delivery that nipped back in a fraction, van Zyl perhaps thought that he could leave it on a length. However, the ball pegs back the off-stump. Broad celebrates the scalp with the rest of his teammates. Perfect start for the tourists and Broad's plan of bowling from round the wicket has worked. van Zyl b Broad 0(2)

Dean Elgar not out 118 246 8 1 47.97

Hashim Amla (captain)c Bairstow b Broad 7 24 1 0 29.17

6.3

Broad to Amla, out Caught by Bairstow!! Amla's rather tame innings has come to an end. Broad is bowling a crackerjack spell. He certainly has the knack of rising to the occasion. He again pitched it on a short of length and the ball straightened too. Amla got caught in the crease and poked at it and eked out a faint edge. Bairstow takes an easy catch. Amla, on expected lines, walked. Superb probing stuff from Broad and he is hitting the seam consistently. Amla c Bairstow b Broad 7(24) [4s-1]

AB de Villiers (wk)c Bairstow b Broad 49 79 7 1 62.03

32.4

Broad to de Villiers, out Caught by Bairstow!! Broad's done it. He's got the big dog. Oh what a moment. One short of a half-century, AB feels for a delivery outside off. It was a brilliantly bowled leg-cutter. You can hardly spot it on the replays. No wonder AB was done in. Nips away from a good length and catches the faintest of outside edges through to Bairstow. And Broad is away. Doesn't bother looking back at umpire Aleem Dar. He knows. He knows he has pulled off a beauty. Well done! de Villiers c Bairstow b Broad 49(79) [4s-7 6s-1]

Faf du Plessis b M Ali 2 19 0 0 10.53

39.6

Moeen Ali to du Plessis, out Bowled!! A rush of blood has cost du Plessis his wicket. He danced down the wicket to a flighted delivery and looked to loft. However, Moeen beat him with his path of flight and guile. For a moment it felt as if Bairstow had missed a stumping chance. But the English players started to celebrate as they reckoned that it had taken the top of off-stump. The on-field umpire went upstairs and after a few replays it was crystal clear that du Plessis was bowled as it had brushed the bail on its way. du Plessis b Moeen Ali 2(19)

Temba Bavuma b Broad 10 35 1 0 28.57

52.2

Broad to Bavuma, out Bowled!! He got Stiaan van Zyl second ball of South Africa's innings and now he's got Temba Bavuma second ball on Day 3. What a start for England. South Africa have lost half their side for just 137 runs on the board. Got to feel for Bavuma though as this one kept a little low. Short of a length delivery wide outside off stump, Bavuma was on the back foot to punch through cover, the lack of bounce did him in as it took the toe-end of the bat and crashed into the leg stump. Bavuma tried to adjust for the bounce, but he could only drag it back onto the sticks. Elation for Broad and Co, disappointment for Bavuma. Bavuma b Broad 10(35) [4s-1]

Jean-Paul Duminy c Stokes b M Ali 2 15 0 0 13.33

57.3

Moeen Ali to Duminy, out Caught by Stokes!! Looks like Moeen Ali has learnt from Ravindra Jadeja's book of spin bowling. Dart it in and then expect the ball to turn sharply. That's exactly what happened there. Pushed through from round the wicket, pitched around middle and turned a long way, ended up just outside off stump, Duminy had to play at it and he was completely squared up in his defence, the ball took the outside edge and the man at slip made no mistake. England are right on top. South Africa are 6 down and they are still 153 runs behind. Duminy c Stokes b Moeen Ali 2(15)

Kyle Abbott c James Taylor b M Ali 0 6 0 0 0.00

59.3

Moeen Ali to Kyle Abbott, out Caught by James Taylor!! Wicket number three for Moeen Ali. Can't just defend the ball and allow a spinner to bowl to his plans when it's turning considerably and Abbott pays the penalty. Flighted delivery just outside off stump, there was a bit of extra bounce as well, Abbott lunges forward to block, gets a big inside edge onto pad, it lobs up, Taylor dives forward from short leg and takes the catch. Cook reviewed straightaway as he saw the ball take the edge. Kyle Abbott c James Taylor b Moeen Ali 0(6)

Dale Steyn c C Woakes b M Ali 17 52 2 0 32.69

77.6

Moeen Ali to Steyn, out Caught by Woakes!! Ali has broken through ending this frustrating stand from England's point of view. Tossed up invitingly and cleverly bowled wide of off, drifted nicely from round the wicket taking it out of Steyn's swinging arc. He saw red due to the flight and unleashed a massive swing of the willow. Due to the ball being wider, could only manage to lob it off the toe of the bat. Skied it towards Woakes at mid-off. Should have been an easy take with the reverse-cup but Woakes decided to add a dash of drama. It popped out on the first attempt, rolled down off the tip of his cap before being cradled onto the chest. Steyn c Woakes b Moeen Ali 17(52) [4s-2]

Dane Piedt c Bairstow b Finn 1 9 0 0 11.11

81.1

Finn to D Piedt, out Caught by Bairstow!! The South African innings has had it's fun and frolic. Now speeding towards the end. Pitched right up just outside off, Piedt might have been expecting the exact opposite given the timidity he displayed in the previous over. His front foot went nowhere as he looked to drive. Finds the edge and through to Bairstow. Finn opens his account. D Piedt c Bairstow b Finn 1(9)

Morne Morkel c J Root b Finn 0 3 0 0 0.00

81.4

Finn to M Morkel, out Caught by Root!! That's it, job done! Morkel prods forward to a length ball outside off, plays away from the body and nicks it through to Root at second slip. He made the catch look easier than it was. Zooming quickly off the edge but Root got his hands quickly into position and cupped it in front of his right shoulder. England have a substantial 89-run lead. And it will also be Lunch. M Morkel c Root b Finn 0(3)

Alastair Cook (captain)lbw b D Piedt 7 27 1 0 25.93

9.2

D Piedt to Cook, out Lbw!! Cook has been given out LBW. He is consulting his partner for the review, so that's a sign that he hasn't hit it and he's walking off. So captain Cook has made only 7 runs in the Test match. Excellent bowling from Piedt. He took the previous one away from the left-hander, now bowls the slider and foxes Cook, who was on the front foot to defend, the ball beat the inside edge of the bat and struck him plumb in front. Umpire Aleem Dar raises his finger in a flash. Impact was on middle and off and it was crashing into leg stump. Cook lbw b D Piedt 7(27) [4s-1]

Alex Hales c Kyle Abbott b D Piedt 26 84 1 1 30.95

25.3

D Piedt to Hales, out Caught by Kyle Abbott!! Why Hales, why? What's the rush? Just been given a life the ball before, but he is on a suicide mission. Runs down the pitch and tries to whack it downtown. Credit to Piedt as well, bowled it much wider after seeing the batsman come for a piece. Hales ended up having to reach out for the slog and dragged it towards long-on. Might have got it a lot straighter than intended. Abbott runs across and takes the catch close to his chest. Did really well to maintain his poise and counter the momentum his running had built. Hales c Kyle Abbott b D Piedt 26(84) [4s-1 6s-1]

Nick Compton c de Villiers b M Morkel 49 116 5 0 42.24

48.6

M Morkel to Compton, out Caught by de Villiers!! Finally, finally, South Africa take a catch. This is a lucky wicket for Morne, but he deserves it. So the bowling change has worked and it has broken the 71-run stand. Short of a length delivery down the leg-side, Compton tries to glance, but gets an edge, de Villiers moves to his left and collects it with both hands. The appeal was spontaneous from the Proteas and umpire Rod Tucker raised his finger. A huge sigh of relief of ABdV's face after taking the catch. By the way, Compton misses his fifty by 1 run. Compton c de Villiers b M Morkel (116) [4s-5]

Joe Root c S van Zyl b Kyle Abbott 73 128 5 1 57.03

70.4

Kyle Abbott to Root, out Caught by van Zyl!! Where's this come from? Completely against the run of play. Never seemed like South Africa could pick another wicket but Root decides to toss a potential hundred away. Back of a length delivery wide of off, Root was waiting on the back foot looking to dab it fine. Rolls his wrists on the ball which bounced a little more than he accounted for and ended up catching the upperedge through to van Zyl at first slip. He moves to his left, and clasps it with a reverse cup close to his chest. Root c van Zyl b Kyle Abbott 73(128) [4s-5 6s-1]

James Taylor st de Villiers b D Piedt 42 97 3 0 43.30

79.6

D Piedt to James Taylor, out Stumped!! England continue to push on and that results in Taylor's wicket. He used his feet to a delivery that was tossed up. However, Piedt beat the batsman with a straighter-one as Taylor looked to work it through the on-side. He missed with his shot and de Villiers, this time, showed sharp reflexes to whip the bails off in a flash. James Taylor st de Villiers b D Piedt 42(97) [4s-3]

Ben Stokes c Elgar b D Piedt 5 14 1 0 35.71

73.6

D Piedt to Stokes, out Caught by Elgar!! Restless. Eager. And now a gonner. Inexplicable really. Both innings, his downfall has been brought about by rash shots. Trying to create something. Okay, I understand England are looking for a declaration. But too many shots too early in the innings. After the success with a reverse-sweep earlier in the over, Stokes attempts another. This time though, Piedt cleverly bowls it slower through the air. Hoodwinked Stokes who was through with the stroke too early. It pops up off the glove and falls in the safe hands of Elgar at slip. Stokes c Elgar b D Piedt 5(14) [4s-1]

Jonny Bairstow (wk)c Duminy b S van Zyl 79 76 9 3 103.95

102.1

van Zyl to Bairstow, out Caught by Duminy!! No hundred for Bairstow, England have been bowled out for 326. South Africa need 416 for an improbable victory. This was a good length delivery outside off, Bairstow was looking to go big over long-off, gets it right off the bottom of the bat, straight to Duminy at long-on, who clutches it onto his chest and completes the catch. Bairstow c Duminy b van Zyl 79(76) [4s-9 6s-3]

Moeen Ali lbw b D Piedt 16 27 2 0 59.26

D Piedt to Moeen Ali, out Lbw!! well, Piedt has a 5-for and he has deserved it. He has bowled with hustle and diligence in this Test. This time, from round the wicket, Piedt bowled it slower through the air, Moeen attempted to sweep and missed. On expected lines, South African players belted out an appeal for LBW, but was turned down. Amla though took the review and on review, it was crystal clear that it pitched and straightened. It then went on to hit the off-stump. Good review from Amla and Co. Moeen's enterprising innings comes to an end. Moeen Ali lbw b D Piedt 16(27) [4s-2]

Chris Woakes c Duminy b S van Zyl 23 38 3 0 60.53

100.2

van Zyl to Woakes, out Caught by Duminy!! That's a stunner from Duminy at short extra cover! On a good length and well outside off, Woakes had to reach out for the drive, doesn't get hold of the shot, hits it in the air and to the left of Duminy. He dives across, went with both hands and holds onto it. A wicket for van Zyl, England's lead is 404 at the moment. Woakes c Duminy b van Zyl 23(38) [4s-3]

van Zyl to Broad, out Caught by de Villiers!! van Zyl has two in the over, a duck for Broad and England haven't declared as yet! On a good length and holding its line outside off, Broad went for the drive, played outside the line of the ball, gets a faint inside edge and it's well held by AB - standing up to the stumps.

22.4

Finn to Elgar, out Caught by Root!! Finn is on a roll here as he has chugged down the pugnacious Elgar now. Elgar was the batsman who stood amidst the ruins in the first innings with a ton. It was nothing but a very full delivery and bowled outside off, Elgar tried to squeeze it, but eked out a top-edge to Root at second slip, who grabbed the catch with both his hands chest high. It came to him at an awkward height and Root did well to pouch the catch. Elgar c Root b Finn 40(71) [4s-6]

Stiaan van Zyl b Stokes 33 36 6 0 91.67

10.5

Stokes to van Zyl, out Bowled!! So Stokes has got the breakthrough. Credit to him. He wasn't fully fit bowling with discomfort in his left foot. He was bowling at gentle pace, but the last two deliveries have been quick. The previous one was around 137kph and now this was a shade over 141. Actually nothing great about this delivery. On a good length and angled in from round the wicket, van Zyl leans forward to defend, plays outside the line, the ball brushes the back thigh and crashes into the off stump. That ends a fine 53-run opening stand. van Zyl b Stokes 33(36) [4s-6]

Finn to Amla, out Caught by Bairstow!! What have you done Amla? He looked in prime form in the second innings. However, Amla throws his wicket away. He won't be happy with the way he was dismissed. There was a touch of width on offer, Amla aimed to crack the cut shot and could only get a top-edge and Bairstow snaffled it gleefully. The England camp is ecstatic. Amla did not move his feet and that resulted in him losing his wicket. Amla c Bairstow b Finn 12(23) [4s-2]

AB de Villiers (wk)lbw b M Ali 37 86 6 0 43.02

47.3

Moeen Ali to de Villiers, out Lbw!! The big fish is gone and the England camp is ecstatic. de Villiers played back to a delivery that pitched on middle and straightened. It also stayed a touch low. Eventually, he looked to clip it through the on-side and missed. On expected lines, Moeen belted out a huge appeal for LBW and Dar answered the appeal in the affirmative. However, de Villiers went up for the review and on review the Hawk-eye showed it was clipping the leg-stump. The great man has to go back to the hut. Huge blow for South Africa first up. de Villiers lbw b Moeen Ali 37(86) [4s-6]

Faf du Plessis c Cook b Finn 9 66 1 0 13.64

46.3

Finn to du Plessis, out Caught by Cook!! Wow! Steven Finn! What a time to get a wicket. Faf du Plessis looks stunned. He can't believe that he's been dismissed and the South African dressing room looks shocked as well. Extra bounce does the trick for Finn and England. Short of a length delivery just outside off stump, no doubt du Plessis had to play at it, he was on the back foot to block, but the bounce surprised him and took a big outside edge, he was also squared up a bit, Cook makes no mistake at first slip. du Plessis c Cook b Finn 9(66) [4s-1]

Dale Steyn b Finn 2 21 0 0 9.52

52.3

Finn to Steyn, out Bowled!! A peach of a delivery from Finn as he picks up his fourth scalp in this innings. The ball was too good for Steyn. He pitched it on a length and the ball nipped away a touch, Steyn did not cover his off-pole and was caught in the crease. He tentatively poked at it and the ball snaked past the blade to take the off stump out of the ground. England continue to march their way towards a significant win. The Proteas are staring down the barrel. Steyn b Finn 2(21)

Temba Bavuma st Bairstow b M Ali 0 6 0 0 0.00

49.3

Moeen Ali to Bavuma, out Stumped!! Moeen has chugged down Bavuma now and England are thrilled to bits. It was the arm-ball bowled by Moeen from round the wicket, Bavuma ventured out of the crease and looked to tuck it around the corner. However, he failed to connect. This time around, Bairstow collected the ball cleanly and showed sharp reflexes to effect the stumping. Bavuma was miles out of the crease. Remember, Bairstow had missed a rather easy stumping chance yesterday to give de Villiers a reprieve. He had also missed a crucial stumping chance in Sharjah with Hafeez being the beneficiary. This is also the first time any keeper from England has effected a stumping in Tests since Pujara was dismissed in that fashion off Swann's bowling in Mumbai in 2012.

Moeen Ali to Kyle Abbott, out Lbw!! Another one bites the dust. Abbott is trapped in front and an easy decision for the umpire to make. South Africa are hurtling towards a heavy defeat. It pitched on middle and straightened. Abbott played back to it and was rapped on the pads. Moeen is on a roll here. He is using the arm-ball to good effect. Kyle Abbott lbw b Moeen Ali 2(11)

Woakes to D Piedt, out Caught by James Taylor!! There goes Wicket No. 9. England are one wicket away from sealing the game. Piedt's vigil has come to an end. This good length delivery tails back in, Piedt presses forward to defend, the ball squirts off the inside edge, deflects off the pad to Taylor at FSL. Woakes gets his name in the wickets column.

Broad to M Morkel, out Lbw!! England win by 241 runs. Their highest margin of victory in terms of runs at Durban. The players shake hands. The visitors are a happy bunch. Cook leads them out of the ground. Coming to the ball, it was the indipper on a fuller length, Morkel falls over on the flick, misses it completely and is struck in front of off-stump. Hawk-Eye confirmed it to be hitting middle. M Morkel lbw b Broad 8(20) [4s-2]
