The National's Sport cover for the Friday, January 15 issue, featuring South Africa and England as they embarked on the third Test in Johannesburg.
English bowlers put in a good spell on the first day, led by Steven Finn and Ben Stokes:
“When you lose a toss and you have the opposition seven down you’ve done all right,” bowling coach Ottis Gibson said.
“We struggled early on to find the right length I think, and then after that I thought Finny was outstanding the way he bowled and we had to keep going.
“They played quite well, they left well in the first 20 minutes, half an hour. Perhaps we didn’t find the right lengths but as the day went on we got better and better.”
On Day 2, England finished off the hosts for 313 before the Proteas struck back for two wickets by Lunch.
