Olly Stone is desperate to finish on a high in South Africa with a win to go with his impressive performances.
And now that he is starting to string several matches together, he is hoping he might be able to follow in the longevity footsteps of a certain Jimmy Anderson too. Stone has caught the eye in both matches so far and could count himself unlucky to have ended up on the losing side both times.
That was especially the case in the second match when his 2-48 in trying to defend 342 was an exhibition of middle overs bowling. And for a bowler who has spent so much time on the sidelines suffering with injuries, the simple joy of getting on the park could only be improved by enjoying the taste of victory too.
