Pitiful Proteas fall to embarrassing defeat in PE
Cape Town – South Africa have fallen to an embarrassing innings and 53-run defeat against England in the third Test at St George’s Park.
It means they are 2-1 down in the series with one Test in Johannesburg to play.
SCOREBOARD: Proteas v England – 3rd Test
It was a nightmarish Test for the hosts, who started day five on 102/6, still 188 runs away from making England bat again.
They were outplayed in every single department from start to finish, with massive questions now hovering over the make-up of the side for the fourth Test.
It took just three balls for England to strike on Monday, with Stuart Broad drawing an inside edge from Vernon Philander (13 off 47) that cannoned into his pads before looping up to Ollie Pope at short midwicket.
