CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - Dom Sibley lay awake watching TV at 2 on Monday morning as he fretted over 15 runs needed to complete his maiden test century, but he got there in the end to guide England to a strong position in the second test against South Africa at Newlands.
Opener Sibley’s highest score in his three previous tests was 29, but he showed excellent application to reach 85 not out overnight in Cape Town, before completing the ton and reaching an unbeaten score of 133 in England’s second innings.
