Re: Cricket
England lose their top three cheaply as they make an increasingly shaky start in reply to South Africa's 309.

Not the start we wanted.

Re: Cricket
Wow, just found a cricket thread...YAY!!!   
Have skipped right to here and not read the other posts. Looking forward to the next three days, should be excellent cricket. Both teams with all to play for and we (England) need to show we can fight back and win when we absolutely have to. Well done to Bell and especially Bairstow. Great effort.
Gonna take some stick from my saffer friend if they beat us though. Whilst I can be humble about being no.1, he won't be

Re: Cricket
England's hopes of saving their number one ranking hang in the balance after a fascinating third day of the final Test against South Africa at Lord's.

Re: Cricket
Hashim Amla and AB de Villiers carry South Africa to lunch on 216-4 - a lead of 210 - but rain delays the restart until 1355 BST.

Re: Cricket
England take lunch on 120-4, needing a further 226 to pull off an unlikely victory over South Africa in the final Test at Lord's.

Re: Cricket
That was test cricket at its best, even though we lost. Should have been a 5 match series...

Re: Cricket
South Africa beat England by 80 runs in second ODI to go top of the one-day rankings.

Disappointing to say the least.
