34.4
OUT! L.B.W. NOT OUT changed by umpire to OUT after REFERRAL. Kagiso Rabada to James Anderson. Yorker, to leg on the front foot defending, hit pad to cover. Golden duck for Anderson! Full, straight yorker from Rabada first up and it's too good for the number eleven! He cannot get any bat on it and the ball crashes into the boot of Anderson. There is a massive appeal from South Africa that is initially turned down by the umpire. The Proteas decide to review and rightly so! It's absolutely plumb, hitting in line and clattering middle and leg.
So South Africa wrap up a comprehensive 280 run victory. Rabada finishes the match with 13 wickets to his name, Amla was superb with the bat and the victory was fully deserved. England were poor today, showing no guts, no value for their wickets and it means they end the series on a negative note. The series concludes, finishing 2-1 to England. -

OUT! Caught. Kagiso Rabada to Stuart Broad. Length ball, outside off stump no foot movement driving, outside edge in the air uncontrolled to slips, by de Villiers. Another ugly shot from an England batsmen! Broad succumbs to Rabada now, a swipe outside off stump with no foot movement at all, it flies off the outside edge and de Villiers takes a smart catch at first slip.

FOUR! Morne Morkel to Moeen Ali. Half volley, middle stump on the front foot driving, well timed past long off for 4 runs. Two elegant looking boundaries in two balls. Lovely stuff from England's number 8, who plays a similar stroke to the previous delivery but this time goes back down the ground through mid off. His execution is superb and he earns himself another four more.

FOUR! Morne Morkel to Moeen Ali. Length ball, middle stump on the front foot pushing, well timed past long on for 4 runs. Moeen hardly hits this one, just gently pushed through the vacant mid on region and his timing is impeccable.

OUT! Caught. Kagiso Rabada to Chris Woakes. Short, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, outside edge in the air uncontrolled to wicketkeeper, by de Kock. Short and wide from Rabada, it was probably there to play the cut shot, but all Woakes can do is get a feather of an edge through to de Kock. Rabada gets another, England are in tatters and South Africa are racing towards a Test Match win.

OUT! Caught. Morne Morkel to Ben Stokes. Short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep mid wicket, by Cook. This is woeful batting from England, just throwing away wickets and not showing any fight whatsoever. Stokes this time perishes by pulling a short ball from Morkel straight down the throat of deep mid wicket. He connects with the shot well, but his selection of stroke is very poor with the man back on the fence. England are crumbling to defeat!

OUT! Caught. Kagiso Rabada to Jonny Bairstow. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot defending, outside edge in the air uncontrolled to wicketkeeper, by de Kock. He doesn't have to wait too long at all! What a delivery to follow up the previous one! Back of a length, just outside off stump making Bairstow play, who just feels for the ball away from his body and it takes the outside edge. De Kock makes no mistake behind the stumps this time! South Africa are tearing through this batting line up!
-
28.3
APPEAL! Kagiso Rabada to Jonny Bairstow. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, outside edge in the air uncontrolled to slips for 1 run, by de Villiers, appeal made for Caught. Very wide delivery, Bairstow wafts a drive, gets a thick outside edge and de Villiers takes the catch at first slip! Umpires wants to check the front foot, and the replays do infact show that he has over-stepped! Rabada will have to wait for his 10-for.
