I was working today so the best coverage I could get without being too invasive was the updates from Cricbuzz, only just seen on the news the most amazing catch by Taylor and Stuart Broad's C&B of De Plessis... crikey ! wonderful !

Can't remember the last time we won a series in SA. Fantastic performance from a team that will only improve. To win the Ashes and then beat SA, it doesn't get much better.

Did I dream us losing to Pakistan?

Good to see the captain get a few runs at the death, hopefully now the series is in the bag he'll relax in the final test and make a big score.

He has been a bit shaky of late against the Saffers, fortunately other batsmen have stepped up and the results have mostly gone with us. However, coming in to bat in the 4 th innings on that pitch having seen the bounce and swing would have been quite daunting for sure so, hat's off for grinding out most of the runs needed under big pressure.
