MANCHESTER :Keegan Petersen and Rassie van der Dussen batted through the afternoon session to take South Africa to 141 for three in their second innings, still trailing England by 123 runs at tea on day three of the second test at Old Trafford.
It has been slow going, with 118 runs scored in 56 overs on the third day. But South Africa are desperate to build a lead to make England bat again and give themselves a chance in a game that the home side have dominated from the first ball. The visitors resumed on their overnight 23 without loss and captain Dean Elgar was the first out for 11 when he was bowled by James Anderson with a superb delivery that crashed into off-stump.
Opener Sarel Erwee never looked comfortable at the crease but made his way to 25 before he edged Ollie Robinson to wicketkeeper Ben Foakes.
