I suggested that after the last ODI. Makes sense if we win this one and the series then play the rest for the last 1
to give them a game and the 1st choice a rest.

Willey & Jordan out

Woakes & Broad in

This is a shame, only because there will be no repeat of the phrase "Can Willey get De Kock out", heard on TMS the other day
I'll take it. Woakes is a handy player to have in the ODI games. I am Woakes fan in the limited overs format, happy to see him get a chance.

Also interesting to note that SA have dropped Morkel for Morris.

Morkel rested.

Neither Hales or Roy move their feet. Maybe I'm a bit old fashioned but I can't help thinking that would help (cue the 200 opening partnership).

Roy out hooking off the forward press. Got himself in a right mess and top edged it from high off the bat straight to fine leg.

Sky saying 400 is required, pressure on England. C'mon Joe!

And yet again an opener fails miserably and we rely on the golden child to rebuild the innings.

There's a few golden children in this side.

If two of them hit the groove, we will be competitive
Agreed but Root is on a different level to just about every other batsman in the world across all formats.

Just got in, England 5 down... Great! Root attempting to hold together this pitiful attempt.

Root on TV this morning saying we have to put the last game behind us learn from it and move on.

That seems to be working well!
