England A team manager Phil Neale rewarded his squad with a day off after they had batted for over a day to draw with Orange Free State.

Neale says that art is missing from the domestic game. Drawing a game when the other side is on top is an important part of Test cricket.

He added: On Monday it felt like a win when we achieved the draw.

The players will have a full net on Thursday before Friday's game with Border and next week's unofficial Test with South Africa A.
