The mighty South African team has registered flamboyant victory in the first test match against England which was played at the venue of Lords cricket ground. The Anrich Nortje and Kagiso Rabada were the heroes of the victory for South African side while in the batting department the class of Dean Elgar and Sarel Erwee in the first innings helped the proteas to reach at a significant score of 326/10 in the first innings.
One day 3 England stepped in to bat by clinching the wickets of South African talenders, but the lead of 161 runs made by South Africa was pretty big. This actually put England on the back foot and as the sharp pace bowling of South Africa charged in, the batsman of England felt like a pack of cards.
At one point of time Alex Lees along with Ben Stokes try to subtle down the things after 3 quick blows by the African bowlers but still the storm of Anrich Nortje thrashed the whole batting lineup of England. He clinched 3 wickets in a quick succession of 3 overs which completely derailed the innings of England.

At the end the left arm pacer Marco Jansen stamped last nail in the coffin as proteas registered win at Lord’s by an innings and 12 runs. Before the start of the match the South African captain Dean Elgar has challenged the bazball by mentioning that he and his team can easily handle the over hyped stuff of England which seems to be happened true at the end.
Bazball gone bust?#ENGvsSA

Never mind attacking or aggressive cricket, there’s a big difference between good cricket and bad cricket.
In this test @englandcricket played a lot of bad cricket and @OfficialCSA played a lot of good stuff. Deserving and clinical winners #testcricket #ENGvsSA #innings https://t.co/2uupwnwBiF
