Mark Boucher WanderersEngland are in deep trouble at Johannesburg, slipping to 48 for 3 in just over 10 overs in their second innings. They have lost their top three batsman already while staring at a deficit of 195 more runs. Rain and bad light once again disrupted play in the fourth and final Test at the Wanderers.

Resuming at 215 for 2, South Africa went onto score 423 for 7 before declaring their first innings lead with a lead of 243. AB de Villiers (58) and Mark Boucher (95 from 118 balls with 9 fours) got amongst the runs for the hosts on the third day.
