    What's the story

    South Africa have humbled England in the first Test at Lord's on Friday.

    England posted 165/10 in the first innings before the Proteas managed to pile on 326, gaining a valuable lead.

    SA bowled out England for just 149 in the second innings to win by an innings and 12 runs.

    The match has got over inside three days.

    How did the match pan out?

    On a rain-hit first day, England were 116/6 before perishing for 165. Kagiso Rabada snapped up five wickets to hurt the hosts.

    For England, Ollie Pope scored a fluent half-century. In response, SA managed 289/7 at stumps on Day 2, gaining a lead of 124 runs.

    After perishing for 326, the SA bowlers bowled brilliantly to hurt England, who had a forgettable outing.

    Rabada

    250 Test wickets for Rabada

    SA speedster Kagiso Rabada was sensational at Lord's. The right-arm pacer claimed figures worth 5/52 and 2/27, picking up the Man of the Match award.

    Rabada has raced to 250 Test wickets for SA at 22.10. He claimed his 12th five-wicket haul in the first innings, including a fourth versus England.

    He is now the seventh SA bowler to take 250-plus Test scalps.

    Information

    As per Opta, Rabada is the 12th different South African bowler to take a five-wicket haul in a Test match at Lord's. He is also the first since Vernon Philander, who achieved the mark in 2012.

    Nortje

    50 Test scalps for Nortje

    SA pacer Anrich Nortje did well with the ball. He took three wickets in the first innings and followed that up with another three in the second.

    With six wickets in the match, Nortje has raced to a mark of 53 in Test cricket. He has an average of 27.00.
