  • The first Test between South Africa and England is tantalisingly poised as we enter day the third day in Centurion.

    After a Day Two in the Boxing Day Test in which 15 wickets fell in total, South Africa took an overall lead of 175 runs with six wickets in hand in their second innings.

    Having posted 284 in their first innings, the Proteas came charging out of the blocks with the ball to bowl England out for 181 runs. However, the visitors stormed back into the game by picking up four early South Africa wickets in the second innings.

    Can South Africa stretch their lead to a match-winning one on the third day or will England’s bowlers rise to the occasion? Find out by following the ball-by-ball LIVE updates from Centurion below.
