Cricket: England 292/5 14:35 - May 27 with 1444 viewsSteve_M

Three overs to go. Been good but SA should make more of this than they did on Thursday.

Stokes' 100 was superb despite a little luck early on.

330/6. A rather good last three overs.

28-1 is pretty mediocre for the last 3 overs for England these days.

I'm wondering if Amla is beginning to suffer from deterioration in his eye-sight. Has struggled badly judging balls coming to him in the field and just got completely smashed in the grille by a bouncer. Lots of people get hit by bouncers, but it's rare for a batsman to be hit front on in the face without playing a shot.

Glad he's ok, but could be signs that he's just not seeing the ball like he used to.

38/1 from the last three.

Amla was also just so bloody good five years ago that it's not possible to keep that level up.


England desperately need a wicket de Lock and de Villiers are playing excellently and will win this if they stay in.

SA 298/5 with three overs left. 33 needed from 18.

I make them slight favourites.

20 from 12.

Loose ball going for six from the last ball might be costly.

Looks like this has gone. 10 from 10. I turned on and they needed 50 odd from 5 overs. That is nothing these days with how far these modern hitters can go.

Those two sixes in consecutive balls made it comfortable. Been a good match but both sides will look at what they can improve (fielding for SA, bowling for England - too many one ones I think).

Fecking awesome bowling at the end there. England dragged back a match they had lost.
