2 very comfortable wins and a loss that could have gone either way

in addition the introductions of Crane, Curran and Malan have showed good signs

The only debutant who failed was the reason we lost the second game as well.

just watched the highlights.

what is it with leg spinners? This thing about coughing into the hand and sticking the tongue out when getting into the delivery stride. Borthwick always did it, now Crane does it.

Is it because Warne used to do it a lot...... hero influence growing up... that sort of thing?

So counting the Champions' Trophy, SA have played nine limited overs games in England and won just three. That's a pretty poor return, although I note that they're ranked 6th in ODIs to England's 2nd (not that that means much of anything).

After their thumping by India, England are 18 points behind SA in the test rankings...
