England leads SA by 36; 17 wickets fall on Day 3 of decider

LONDON — England stumbled to a 36-run lead after a remarkable, emotionally charged third day of the deciding test against South Africa that saw 17 wickets fall and cricket pay its respects to Queen Elizabeth II in a moving pre-match tribute on Saturday. “We knew it was only going to be a three-day game,” England fast bowler Stuart Broad said, “so we had to play some entertaining stuff.” The entertainment came after a solemn start to the day in south London, when players from both teams — all wearing black armbands — walked through a guard of honor formed by military and lined up either side of the wicket. England’s seamers were excellent, with Ollie Robinson taking 5-49 and Broad weighing in with 4-41 to join former Australia pacer Glenn McGrath on 563 wickets for his test career — tied for fifth place on the all-time list. England openers Alex Lees and Zak Crawley again fell cheaply, both to left-arm pacer Jansen, but Ollie Pope helped push the hosts toward South Africa’s total.
