“It was a crazy day of cricket”. That is the best way Castle Lager Proteas opening batsman, Dean Elgar, summed up the sensational batting display from Ben Stokes and Johnny Bairstow on day two of the second Sunfoil Test match against England at PPC Newlands on Sunday.The bowlers simply had no response to the onslaught, despite trying out various game plans and ideas. Elgar gave full credit to the inexperienced attack who ‘gave it everything’, and if anything, will take a lot of learning for their young Test careers going forward.Elgar feels the dominating performance from England’s batsmen will not have a lasting scarring effect on the team, who will need to slowly chip away at the towering first innings total with three days left in the match.
