Stokes to Philander, out Caught by Ollie Pope!! England win by 189 runs and win at Cape Town after 63 years. Stokes fittingly has brought about the end as well. 2019 belonged to this man. The start of 2020 also promises of things to come from this man. That was a brute of a delivery which landed on a back of a length spot and took the glove of the batter to be caught at fifth slip. Philander c Ollie Pope b Stokes 8(51) [4s-2]

The reverse countdown has started. 54 balls to go and most likely it should be the pair of Stokes and Bess who will continue till the end if SA can last that long.
