After the flop of Day 1, the match between England and South Africa on Day 2 will not be played after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

After the Queen’s death,                  

“I’m sure I speak for everyone in the game when I say how truly sad I am to hear of the Queen’s passing. Her Majesty has been such a great supporter of the game and was always so vocal of her and her late husband’s enjoyment around the sport. Her dedication to her country will never be forgotten. For her service and her selflessness over her extraordinary reign, we owe her a debt that can never be repaid.”

ECB Chairman Richard Thompson said

Their third Test between England and South Africa is the final and deciding game of the all-important ICC World Test Championship. South Africa have lost the top spot in the WTC rankings after losing to England in the second Test.
