England have enough now for the next test match too, never mind this one.

You see I have issues with Ben Stokes. For the reason is ego is bigger than his talent.. And hes played 20 test matches now and his record is average to poor..
I never gave the likes of Ravi Bopara a free ride. Am not going to give Stokes it either.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He's single-handedly won more test matches for England than Bopara ever did though

I take your point, but if batting average is the only yardstick you ever use then you'll always be disappointed by Stokes. He's an impact player who will need to be carried more often than you might like, but then he'll win a match with a 70-ball ton and a devastating 3-wicket spell.

The fact he offers decent (if expensive, relatively speaking) bowling means he'll always contribute one way or another.

Few fans posting, England must be on top.

Not sure if you're referring to me serial.no intention of being negative. Just pointing out that Saffers have a poor reserves bowling attack. Morkel aside, these guys are very very average.

Also, Although I don't want to open the quota debate - it's certainly doesn't help the Saffers pick their BEST 11

This SA has been poor I've got to admit. Amla hasn't impressed as captain. You've got to give the England boys credit though, still need to concentrate very hard.

Yeah agree neo. To be fair stokes has ripped through Morkel too, so it's not like he's only smashing the other bowlers. Great stuff.
