1 good test and trashed in three other tests. Not good enough whatsoever. Its the hype that these boys have and only really Bavuma, Philander and Maharaj have shown some heart, the rest at best so -so (qdk and amla) and then lol bad such as Oliver, Duminy, Kuhn and "THE NEXT DE VILLIERS~!!" De Bruyn.

They should open the bowling with him against the Windies.

So.........,
The only one ever to get 25 & 250 in a 4 test series? Quite something!

Would have loved some more fight but you can't complain about the result. England's depth is amazing. Stokes and Ali just give this side so many options it's unbelievable.
For SA I think the bowlers can give themselves a pass except Morris(had one good spell). The batting and the fielding have been atrocious at times.

Whatever it takes!!!
But RSA are much more at home in these conditions than India ever are. Been a terribly disappointing tour from their PoV. Well done England and congrats to all England fans here at CW. Moeen becoming a cult hero definitely welcome, and been a really good spirited tour thread too. Congrats to both teams' supporters. England on the rise and RSA on the wane, unfortunately. 
(The sad smiley is for RSA going down, btw. Very happy to see England do well, even though their LO side is so much much more likeable).
Hopefully for the home series, RSA put out a side something like this:
Elgar
Amla
Du Plessis (c)
AB
Bavuma
QDK (wk)
De Bruyn / Morris
Philander
Maharaj
Steyn
Morkel
And they can all keep themselves fit too, I hope. And for all the slack that Duminy gets here, the ones who seem to have replaced seem to have gone even worse. Just like Ballance and the English #5.

I apologise for grossly underselling Moeen with this post

Yeah they did well. I think England would have dominated that series statistically (the 2nd Test was an absolute thumping), but Pakistan won the sessions that mattered.
