England take on South Africa at Old Trafford on Thursday as the hosts look to bounce back from defeat at Lord’s.
South Africa dismantled the English batting line-up twice as they won the first Test of the three-match series by an innings and 11 runs.
A fierce bowling attack led by Kasigo Rabada, Anrich Nortje and Marco Jansen shone as England faltered to their first Test defeat under new leadership duo Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes.
Stokes was defiant after the match, insisting his team’s attacking tactics can still be successful, and the pressure is now on in Manchester.
