It is more than enough. But it’s still brainless

You may be thinking of Colin de Grandhomme, but he's from Zimbabwe. The somewhat less stellar B.J.Watling is South African born.I did predict a series win even after we lost the first test.
South Africa v England 2nd test - Newlands
One of the most iconic venues in cricket. Despite the loss in the first test still fancy England to win the series. Not cos they're great but cos the Saffers are worse. Root's bizarre captaincy is the biggest worry for me to any positive results.www.readytogo.net
Isn't there a decent New Zealander from SA too?

Pitch was starting to misbehave a bit, perhaps they thought attacking was the best way of scoring runs

Seems so, but I doubt he'd improve them much.

Agreed, but the pitch is looking tricky, now. Root's scratchy innings suggested that.
Paddy O'Dors
Striker
Bit unprofessional that I thought. We're trying to build a test team but going back into ODI mode.
Mr Redknapp
Striker
Apart from De Kock and Elgar none of them look capable of making 50.
Paddy O'Dors
Striker
As a team they don't look like scoring 200 atm.
Should be more than enough - England to win by 250 runs.
Mr Redknapp
Striker
They should allow Kolpaks to play for their Country, which will make them the strongest possible team.
best of both worlds for the likes of Olivier and Harmer.
Dexter
Striker
Agreed.
Seemed like the same sort of complacency that set in at the end of the last test. Can’t imagine the Australians giving them even the slightest sniff for example. We need to learn to be ruthless.
Disagree.
We are miles ahead of the game and they require a world record chase on a deteriorating pitch with a very flakey batting line up.
This will be all over tomorrow imo.

But the same would apply even if we'd batted a bit more professionally.
Think we are maybe a session light in terms of the game, would’ve only batted until lunch anyway.
Top 4 were always going to play orthodox cricket which they did, Stokes downwards were always going to play positively given game situation.
We are going to win a series in S Africa 3-1. (a poor saffers side granted) Think the lads deserve a pat on the back personally.

Think we been picky for picky sake with a few of these posts, suppose there is a argument for batting slowly, but these are out of the game and we will destroy them, their batting is horrendous and will get no where near it.
The game was over after our first innings.
They certainly do especially after the comments that it was a disastrous tour after the first test!!
