Match report
South Africa land the first blow
Interestingly, Buttler intimated that England should have been more aggressive once they were ahead in the game. They did get bogged down, the skipper’s own knock was uncharacteristically stodgy and that seemed to take the wind out of their chase.
Congratulations to South Africa who were impressive after a lacklustre start with the ball, once they got a sniff of blood in the water they were unrelenting.
That’s it from me, thanks as ever for your correspondence. We’ll be back for the next game on Sunday. Until then, goodbye!
