Broady finishes it off with a stunning catch off his own bowling..........

England need 74 to win

Pessimism Test..........how many wickets will we lose getting them ?

I reckon 4.........

Wow. Would not have expected england to do that with the ball. Broadie finished with 6/17
Not bad bowling figures from the man. I assuming theyre his second best in tests.

looks a bit brighter now............maybe the weather has gone round the side of the ground.......

35 more to win.........it's getting to the stage where it'll be a shame if they can't finish it tonight

what a spell from broad.
Broad on fire with a fivefer
Broad is normally good but sometimes he is outstanding.

Has to be man of the match.

NB. I reckon we will win.

It looks like we are going to beat the number one test team in the world So where would England be in the Test rankings after this series win and would South Africa still be at number one

Well it was rather fitting that Joe Root would score the winning runs after his brilliant century in the first innings

Dont you think Root should be Man of the Match as without that century England would not be in this position to win
