I was going to say england would beat sa and offer a bet but didnt have the balls in the end, going to be a good series.
Second test quite a humdinger, on the last day only; will England win, or will the Proteas get a
chance.
Now for the third test. Should be a very interesting game of cricket.

He certainly is when he's 'in the zone'
Won the deciding Test vs Oz back in August , blowing them away with 8-15
Won the Test today to beat SA with 6-17 . Unplayable when on form
Series lost 1-2

Series lost 1-2
have to say he had a very lacklustre , end of term England, to our shame
The difference in the performances is that Broad's 2 amazing 'blasts' were in Tests that England won, in both cases to secure the Series

Strange you say that, I have a friend who is a big Lancashire fan, and he was v keen to sign Rabada. (they haven't!0
If he is handled responsibly by the County (ie, not overbowled, given games off). he would surely learn a lot and improve. There is no doubt that English conditions are different, and it can only help to improve this exceptional young bowler's 'education'

think it was on the news today that he has signed for Kent next season (ie, in 3 months time or so)
with some luck, he may qualify as 'English' and play for us in 5 years time!!

First one went SA way. Great tension in the last two overs!
