Match Flow

Day 2

Day 3

On Thorpe's run out, umpire Orchard initially gave not out

but consulted TV replay after discussions with Cronje, and

reversed his decision.

Tea taken early at fall of England's 10th wicket.

AA Donald awarded Man of the Series for 'contributing the

most towards South Africa winning the series'.

Following the presentations, commentator Jack Bannister

honoured his pre-series promise that he would "eat this

piece of paper if South Africa win the series".

Scheduled 5th day of Test replaced by a day/night limited

overs match versus Western Province.

South Africa's first series win at home against England since

1930-31.
