A pick of the action from the fourth day of the second Test between England and South Africa at Trent Bridge

England collapsed to 133 all out as South Africa completed a comprehensive 340-run victory in the second Test, at Trent Bridge.

Needing a world-record 474 for a highly improbable victory, England lost Keaton Jennings and Gary Ballance to a fantastic opening spell from Vernon Philander before Joe Root was bowled by Chris Morris' superb, late-swinging yorker.

Morris then bounced out Alastair Cook (42) to claim another prized wicket before lunch and South Africa rattled through the England lower order after the interval to wrap up the win.

After Philander and Morris had ousted the England top four, Keshav Maharaj joined the party in the afternoon session, dismissing Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali before Philander returned to get rid of Ben Stokes.

Stuart Broad then holed out to Morne Morkel in the deep and it was left to Duanne Olivier to seal the win, having Mark Wood and James Anderson caught in consecutive deliveries.
