England v South Africa: England begin day three needing quick wickets - but there is no early breakthrough for Andrew Flintoff

Finally, Darren Pattinson removes Ashwell Prince for a Test best 149 - but South Africa are already in a very strong position

The tourists' lead continues to grow and despite a few scares on 99, de Villiers scampers a single to bring up his sixth Test century

There are few alarms after lunch for South Africa, although a scampered single brings de Villiers into contact with Monty Panesar

Darren Pattinson is left on the deck after putting down a difficult caught and bowled chance following a Mark Boucher prod

It is proving to be a frustrating afternoon for England as AB de Villiers and Mark Boucher bring up South Africa's 400 with a 50 partnership

South Africa continue to rack up the milestones - AB de Villiers reaches 150, his team pass 500 and the lead is more than 300

De Villiers is finally out, caught by Flintoff for 174 - but the all-rounder's lack of celebration shows who has the upper hand

South Africa are finally all out for 522 - and Michael Vaughan knows his team have a huge job with a first innings deficit of 319
