By Saurabh Sharma January 20, 2020 • 17:25 PM View: 1036

Port Elizabeth, Jan 20: Skipper Joe Root may have failed to deliver with the bat but the 29-year-old starred with the leather to bundle out hosts South Africa for 237 runs and help England register an impressive win by an innings and 53 runs. The victory also helped the visitors take a 2-1 lead in the four-match Test series.

After managing just 209 runs in their first essay, the hosts failed to draw any lessons as after being asked to follow-on, they once again crumbled against the England bowlers and were eventually bowled out for 237 runs.
