The only thing stopping me majorly lumping on Eng is it has been a very long time since anyone except Australia has beatenDon't think bad light saved eng, already well on the way to being a draw.However I think it shows declaring over an hour before tea on day 2 is too early (even scoring 629) if there is no bad weather around. Unless its a must win game.Fortunately SAhttps://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30633461/south-africa-v-england-2nd-test-at-cape-town?post_id=547363693#547363693Don't think bad light saved eng, already well on the way to being a draw.However I think it shows declaring over an hour before tea on day 2 is too early (even scoring 629) if there is no bad weather around.

A bit of this on day 4 and we might have had a result. Was looking at a total wipe-out yesterday but managed to trim my losses by just under a third today so not all in vain.https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30633461/south-africa-v-england-2nd-test-at-cape-town?post_id=547360061#547360061A great pity we had to wait for day 5 to see something for the bowlers.

SA can try and put some positive spin on this test match but the ball was doing a lot more on the final day and I think SA would have struggled to get 150-200.https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30633461/south-africa-v-england-2nd-test-at-cape-town?post_id=547359193#547359193I don't think the bad light saved Eng.
