ENGLAND FIRST INNINGS
0751: Eng 401-5
Raucous early-morning applause from the Army of Barmy as rapid singles take England past the 400 mark. Still no sign of nonsense from this four-day-old track, and if it wasn’t tempting fate - which clearly it is - I’d say that England should… no. This is a time for old-fashioned discipline. I’m saying no more.0747: Eng 399-5
Positive start from Bell, dabbing Morkel away with the pace for two to fine leg and then stealing singles with bright-eyed elan. Decent support in from the England fans; plenty of space around the green stands for home supporters.
0744: Eng 395-5
Steyn looks to be in a bit of a strop here. No harm in that - the more spice the merrier in a Test match. Breaking news from the England dressing-room, almost literally - Paul Collingwood has been taken to hospital with a suspected dislocated finger. Shipped it during the warm-up this morning. England would miss his slip skills if that’s confirmed - I’ll keep you posted.0739: Eng 393-5
Morne Morkel, a vest under his short-sleeved shirt, strides in. Pick of the bowlers again yesterday, but that’s too full - driven with classical high elbow by Prior back down the ground for three. Paul Harris chasing that one, his clipped 'tache in danger of looking a little Fuhrer. Anyone seen that episode of Pulling when the Bic flies down the toilet0734: Eng 390-5
Cloudy and overcast at Kingsmead, with the wind coming from the south-west - and in these parts, they call that a bowler’s wind. Interesting. Dale Steyn, full of sneering snout, canters in to Ian Bell - loose down leg, flicked fine for the first four of the day. England lead by 47.0725: If England can stick on a rapid 100 in this elongated morning session, take a lead of 150/200 into the afternoon session, get Swanny full of tweak - exactly. On the other hand we might just meander to a tedious flat-track draw. Hmm. 0720: And so we come to the Day Of Reckoning. A day for heroes. A day for deeds of derring-do, and possibly some derring-don’ts.This article is from the BBC News website. © British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
