Broad gives England scent of victory

Stuart Broad took three wickets for one run in 15 balls as England scented victory in the second Test at Kingsmead.

At the ground where he was hit for six sixes in an over at the 2007 World Twenty20, Broad returned with a vengeance as South Africa lurched to 50 for six on the fourth evening.

England declared 232 runs in front this afternoon, after Ian Bell (141) had vindicated his controversial selection with his ninth Test hundred in a total of 575 for nine.

Bell then pulled off a smart catch at silly-point to help Graeme Swann inflict the initial damage as South Africa set out to bat four-and-a-half sessions to prevent England going 1-0 up with two matches to play.

But it was Broad's elimination of Jacques Kallis, AB de Villiers and JP Duminy after tea that accelerated the South Africa slide.

Swann, who followed up the dismissal of Ashwell Prince by bowling Hashim Amla before tea, also removed Proteas skipper Graeme Smith lbw to put England firmly in the driving seat.
