South African pacer Kagiso Rabada on Friday completed 250 wickets in Test cricket, becoming the seventh South African bowler to do so.
Rabada reached this landmark during the first Test against England at Lord's. On Day 3, in the 37th over of England's second innings, Rabada sent back England Test skipper Ben Stokes for 20, after Keshav Maharaj caught the batter at deep midwicket.
With this, Rababda reached 250 Test wickets. Rabada is the seventh South African bowler to take 250 wickets. He is behind the likes of Dale Steyn (439), Shaun Pollock (421), Makhaya Ntini (390), Allan Donald (330), Morne Morkel (309), Jacques Kallis (291).
Coming to the match, world-class performances by the South African bowlers led by Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje coupled with a half-century from Sarel Erwee helped the Proteas down hosts England by an innings and 12 runs within just three days in the first Test of the three-match series at Lord's on Friday.
