| de Villiers hundred hurts weary England |
AB de Villiers' sixth Test hundred has put South Africa firmly in command of the second Test at Headingley, leading by 277 at tea on the third day. England removed Ashwell Prince for 149 in a far-improved bowling display than yesterday, but with uneven bounce and movement troubling the batsmen, survival is England's only hope when their second innings gets underway.

| Prince and de Villiers dominate England |
After scraping just three wickets in two days at Lord's, there was always a concern England's bowlers would be a little jaded. And so they were on the second day at Headingley, one that yielded 221 runs for South Africa and one measly wicket for England, whose lack of venom must now be of some concern to Michael Vaughan.

| Series catches light with controversy |
Spectators watching the final two days at Lord's could easily have drifted off to sleep, with England managing three wickets as South Africa ground their way to a draw. Headingley, though, doesn't deal in dull cricket and the Test series came to life.

| England hit back after lowly batting display |
South Africa dismissed England for a disappointingly meagre 203 before they themselves lost three quick wickets, while Hashim Amla was a hair's breadth away from joining those dismissed in the pavilion. After last week's dull draw in London, this was Test cricket at its most compelling and frantic.
