Stokes to Elgar, OUT, Ben Stokes, he breaks through when he wants!,
Nick Compton at backward point makes good ground to snaffle the looping edge!

And that's the close on a record-breaking second day at Newlands which belongs to Ben Stokes.
He smoked 258, the second fastest double century in Test history and the highest score by a No. 6 :
in a sixth-wicket record stand of 399 with Jonny Bairstow whom is 150 not out !.

Stokes incredibly down to earth: "I will probably never play like this again. but at least I can say I have done it once."
