How would Jacques Rudolph be feeling? The **** played 5 days and didn't do anything. Didn't bat. Didn't bowl. Didn't take a catch. Just fielded a few balls. May as well have sent out a pot plant instead.

I think no need to panic too much for England; still lot of cricket to be played in this series. It would be really harsh if they start changing and chopping too much just based on this test

Well played SA. Comprehensive victory.

Ironic that the last wicket was about the first one on a day 5 pitch that you can blame on the pitch. England can have no complaints about this defeat, have to bounce back like never before and make tough choices about the players carrying injuries.
That's gonna be the key point, can't have no passengers now and we need to win at least one of these tests.

That's a paddlin'.

Fair play to SA, have absolutely shellacked us. Hats off.

When was the last time we came back from a 1-0 deficit to win in a home series? Only time away I can recall is SL in 00/01.

We recovered from 1-0 v the Windies in 2000, but that was a 5 test series.

Don't think they would if it was just down to performance but a few bowlers are carrying injuries and don't look fit.

where's his head


But yeah, I used the wrong word. but this is the first time since he started it's come to day 5 and he's been expected to deliver, isn't it? Promising for SA that he did the job
Tahir bowled well I thought, deserved the figures he got.

Well done Proteas whatever happens in the rest of the series you have proved 95% of England supporters wrong.

Good fightback especially when England were 267/3, if the roles were reversed a certain word would have been thrown around...

Special congratulation to Amla and Steyn
