Double blow by Rabada-Ngidi burst rocks Aussies in WTC final
AFP
Rabada’s fiery 11th over removed Khawaja and Green in quick succession, backing up his first-innings 5/51 to rattle Australia early in the second dig
Ngidi tightened the screws post-tea, trapping Smith lbw and removing Webster, who had top-scored in the first innings, as Australia crumbled further
Wiaan Mulder bowled Head through the gate, while Cummins fell to a blistering Ngidi yorker, leaving Australia with a slim lead and seven down
Earlier, Cummins tore through the lower order with 6/28, reaching 300 Test wickets and triggering South Africa’s collapse from 121/5 to 138 all out
Only Bavuma and Bedingham resisted briefly for South Africa, but Cummins had the last word with three key strikes and a rousing ovation at Lord’s
