Watch: Ben Stokes Won't Stop Hugging Stuart Broad After He Takes One-Handed Screamer In ENG vs SA 1st Test

Dean Elgar-led South Africa are completely dominating the ongoing Lord's Test against England as they managed to take their lead past the 120-run mark. On the third day, England were in need of some quick wickets, and the hosts got the much-needed breakthrough in the very first over of the day, and it was due to the brilliance of Stuart Broad who was positioned at mid-on. In an over bowled by Matthew Potts, on the third delivery, Broad plucked the ball out of thin air to send Rabada packing.

England vs South Africa, 1st Test, Day 2 Live: England faced an early blow on Day 2 as Kagiso Rabada dismissed Ollie Pope at 73. As soon as England were eyeing a recovery with Stuart Broad and Matty Potts on the crease, Rabada struck again and sent the former back to the dugout. Currently, England's score read at 146/8, with Potts and Jack Leach, standing unbeaten at the crease. South Africa dominated the proceedings on Day 1 as the bowlers provided them with a strong hand. Rabada, Anrich Nortje, and Marco Jensen stood together and left England struggling at 116/6, at the end of Day 1. Rabada was the pick among the bowlers as he scalped three wickets in 9 overs and did not let the hosts recover. It will be interesting to see whether England will be able to turn the tide in their favour on Day 2 or not. (Live Scoreboard).

England vs South Africa 1st Test, Day 1 Live Score Updates: England Put In To Bat By South Africa

ENG vs SA 1st Test, Day 1 Live: South Africa captain Dean Elgar won the toss and elected to field in the first Test against England at Lord's beginning today. While Elgar wrote off England's 'Bazball' brand of cricket, Ben Stokes has remained adamant that their aggressive style is here to stay and the team is unperturbed by the South African skipper's comments. While England will look to continue their four-match winning streak, South Africa will want to consolidate their position atop the World Test Championship points table. Interestingly, England have won all their last four matches since Stokes took over as captain batting second, so this match will pose them with a different challenge. (LIVE SCORECARD)
