Second Test. SA v England. Cape Town, Jan 2-6

I'd forgotten what a massive partnership this is. Not sure what our 6th wicket record is, but these two can't be to far away?

Correct, only 2 runs away from Thorpe & Flintoff's 281.

Pretty sure it's already a record for two gingers

A shame the game has finished for the day as those two were well set.

Got a feeling the momentum will be lost having to start again tomorrow.

I posted this at stumps yesterday.


What do I know?

[Durhamfootman]

amid the flurry of shots from Stokes, JB has quietly gone about his business. 90 runs now. Excellent support for BS, by keeping the momentum going.

I really hope he gets his ton. I wonder what Buttler's thinking?

What a fabulous morning session that was, total carnage.

Remarkable knock from Stokes, didn't give the watcher a chance to take a breath or make breakfast!

[Aidan11]

Didn't realise the stand is up to 290.

[Gingerfinch]

Think we took that session.

I'm expecting more of the same after lunch. If these two are still there in an hours time, then we could see a declaration, though Stokes could be nearing 300 by then.

some special innings from stokes this.

bloody hell could have made runs in this tour, why did I have to be picked in UAE lol.

Good feature on Gary kirsten helping black africans.
he and the other guy made a good point they need to improve the facilities in the area rather then get all the best black players to the best private schools.
