'A master of his craft'

Vernon Philander took the plaudits after a career-best effort gave South Africa the series lead in a low-scoring encounter at Newlands

08-Jan-2018•ESPNcricinfo staff

India should rue fatal first day

It's easy to fall for recency bias and blame a fourth-innings collapse for losing a winnable contest, but India know their bowlers and batsmen really let the Newlands Test slip in the first innings

Tea and sympathy won't suffice as England face up to another drubbing

Stoicism is an admirable trait that serves the country well, but it's time to get really rather cross about the state of English cricket
