Alastair Cook drew level with his mentor Graham Gooch by hitting his 20th Test century, giving England the edge on the first day of the first Test against South Africa at the Oval in London.
Cook made 114 not out as England overcame the loss of captain Andrew Strauss for a duck in the first over to reach 267 for three at the close.
Cook shared a 170-run second wicket partnership with Jonathan Trott who mad 71 and an 81-run third wicket stand with Kevin Pietersen, who made 42.
Cook resumes today alongside Ian Bell on ten.
Morne Morkel was the pic of the SA attack with 2 wickets, those of Strauss and Trott, for 44 runs in 18 overs.
Kallis got the wicket of Pietersen - just when he looked set to dominate.
