England secure comprehensive Oval Test win to clinch series against South Africa

thenationalnews.com

Ben Stokes's England rounded off a memorable summer of cricket with a comprehensive nine-wicket win in the third and final Test at the Oval against South Africa to complete a 2-1 series win on Monday.

Chasing a modest target of 130, England resumed the day needing just 33 for victory. Openers Zak Crawley and Alex Lees had added 97 the previous day and victory seemed a formality.

Lees was dropped by Proteas wicketkeeper Kyle Verreynne on the third ball of the morning and then survived another scare when a thick edge flew over Keegan Petersen at third slip to go for four.

South Africa made a breakthrough on the penultimate delivery of the third over of the day, with Lees's luck finally running out as a review showed he had been trapped lbw by Kagiso Rabada.
