- South Africa close on 289-7 after England claim late wickets
- Stuart Broad: ‘We’re going to have to have a couple of great days’
Ben Stokes illuminated another difficult day for England by taking three South African wickets during a long and taxing second day and, though the tourists extended their lead to 124 at stumps, Stuart Broad said the feeling in the home dressing room was good. “We’re really positive that we’ve got ourselves back in the game,” he said.
Having recovered from positions of adversity to win their first four Tests of the summer, England will refuse to be daunted by the situation they face in this one.
