England escape again
Last pair deny South Africa in Cape Town
Graham Onions reprised his role of unlikely batting hero as England held on for a draw with nine wickets down in the third Test against South Africa.
Onions, having survived 12 balls to secure a stalemate in the series opener at Centurion, was once again required to save the tourists at Newlands after four wickets tumbled late on the final day.
