SA vs AUS, WTC Final 2025 Highlights Day 2: Alex Carey gave Australia some respite after they found themselves in a precarious position in the final session of Day 2 of the World Test Championship (WTC) final at Lord's. The wicketkeeper-batter stood tall and stitched a crucial 61-run stand with Mitchell Starc for the 8th wicket before Kagiso Rabada removed him for 43(50). Starc, batting on 16(47), and Nathan Lyon (1 off 4) finished the day unbeaten as Australia pushed their total to 144/8 after being reduced to 74/7. They have a healthy lead of 218 runs.
Lungi Ngidi, who went wicketless in the first innings, triggered Australian collapse in the final session. He struck thrice and certainly made Australia uncomfortable. Ngidi's blows included Steve Smith (13), Beau Webster (9) - both half-centurion from the previous innings - and Pat Cummins (6). Meanwhile, Rabada, who registered a five-wicket haul in the first innings, also scalped the same number of wickets. Marco Jansen and Wiaan Mulder - the other two pacers from the Proteas camp - registered a scalp each.
Earlier, Australia skipper Pat Cummins ensured South Africa remained on backfoot despite the momentum built by Temba Bavuma and David Bedingham. The Australian skipper returned with six scalps as South Africa were folded for 138 as Australia gained a lead of 74 runs. The day began with Bavuma and Bedingham showing promise as they guided South Africa to 94 from the overnight total of 43/4. Cummins removed his Proteas counterpart Bavuma for 36(84), following which wicketkeeper-batter Kyle Verreynne joined the action. He combined with Bedingham to keep the momentum intact as South Africa reached 121/5 at Lunch. Cummins, however, didn't allow South Africa to settle in the second session and wrapped the show by picking the remaining four wickets, while Keshav Maharaj was run-out. Bedingham scored 45(111), which was the highest individual total among the Proteas batters.
Meanwhile, Australia had a slow start to the WTC final but by the time Stumps were called on Day 1, they were on top all thanks to the pace trio of Starc, Cummins, and Josh Hazlewood. Australia, who were asked to bat first, were folded for 212 in the first innings.

ℹ️MATCH INFO
Lungi Ngidi, beaming with optimism, joins the broadcast team. He believes the Proteas are in a strong position, acknowledging Australia's disciplined bowling that restricted their first innings total. However, Ngidi emphasizes South Africa's resilient fightback. He admits struggling initially, failing to hit the right areas, but found his rhythm after Tea on Day 2. He's energized by the crowd chanting his name, a real shot in the arm! Looking ahead to Friday, the focus is razor-sharp: snag those remaining two Aussie wickets early. Ngidi concedes that chasing anything over 200 against Australia's potent attack will be a Herculean task, but the Proteas will back themselves to the hilt.
MATCH INFO
It's that unwavering self-belief that distinguishes top teams! The word 'die' simply isn't in their vocabulary. Twenty-eight wickets have tumbled in just two days, yet it's impossible to definitively declare who holds the upper hand; neither side has seized sustained dominance. This Test has been a rollercoaster of momentum swings, with Australia's century stands after Lunch on Day 1 and Tea on Day 2 standing out – the only two such sessions witnessed so far. The Aussies will certainly feel more confident now than when they were reeling at 73/7, but only a fool would prematurely call a winner. Friday could be the grand finale of this gripping contest, but the ominous rain clouds loom large. Play is scheduled to commence at 3 pm IST (0930 GMT) on June 13th, 2025, weather permitting, fingers crossed! Given the high-octane cricket we've witnessed, this could very well come down to the wire, the final hour of Day 3. Don't miss a single ball – tune in early for our comprehensive pre-match build-up! Farewell and take care!
MATCH INFO
Credit where it's due – both teams have battled fiercely! South Africa, staring down the barrel with a 74-run deficit, somehow clawed their way back, reducing Australia to a precarious 73/7 after the openers had put on 28. And then, from that dire position, the Aussies found a way to stubbornly resist on Day 3. It's been a truly bizarre day of Test cricket! The morning session yielded a solitary wicket, while the subsequent two sessions saw a staggering 13 wickets fall. Batting out there is proving to be an ordeal, even a fifty-run partnership feels like scaling Everest. The morning belonged to Temba Bavuma, who led the Protean counter-attack from a perilous 43/4. He adopted a positive, attacking approach from the outset, which ultimately led to his downfall. The middle session was Pat Cummins' domain, as he ripped through the South African batting lineup, bagging a superb 6-wicket haul. And then, in the evening session, Lungi Ngidi exorcised the demons of his poor first innings performance, claiming 3 crucial wickets in a herculean 9-over spell.
MATCH INFO
Regardless of Australia's batting woes, South Africa deserve immense credit. They were seemingly down and out after their first innings but roared back into contention with a vengeance. Kagiso Rabada lit the fuse, setting the tone, but the undisputed star of the session was Lungi Ngidi, who elevated his game to stratospheric levels. His initial breakthrough, dismissing Steve Smith, injected him with boundless confidence, ensuring that the Aussies couldn't run away with the lead.
MATCH INFO
Another inquest looms for Australia's fragile batting lineup. It's hard to decipher the significance of that Carey-Starc partnership. Did the ball suddenly lose its venomous bite? Did the pitch magically transform into a batsman's paradise? The only plausible explanation is perhaps the ball softened after the 25th or 30th over, making life slightly easier for the batsmen. But still, there can be no excuses for a batting unit to capitulate twice in a Test match, especially in the Ashes. Australia might argue that they were dealt a harsh hand, facing the music under gloomy, overcast skies, but that's what Test cricket at its highest level is all about - mental resilience. Alarmingly for the Aussies, with a significant chunk of senior players expected to hang up their boots after the Ashes later this year, it leaves a gaping void in their inexperienced batting lineup, which currently lacks the technical finesse to combat quality bowling. The spirited fight shown by Carey should have been the standard, not the exception, and the fact that not a single batter in the top 6 managed to surpass 25 is deeply concerning.
MATCH INFO
Both these sides pride themselves on their razor-sharp fielding, and Alex Carey certainly didn't live up to that standard on Wednesday. On Thursday, it was South Africa's turn to falter in that crucial final session, first with Kyle Verreynne failing to cling onto a difficult chance and then Marco Jansen misjudging his position and grassing a catch. Both drops were off Starc, and only time will reveal the ultimate cost of these errors. Aside from these glaring mistakes, numerous edges fell agonizingly short of the slip cordon, prompting questions about Kyle Verreynne's positioning behind the stumps. Should he have been a few steps closer to the stumps?
MATCH INFO
It's been a case of tooth and nail, a relentless battle for every inch! Day 1 – that missed review against Beau Webster, a costly oversight as he went on to score 72. On Day 2, Pat Cummins' successful review against Kyle Verreynne led to a quick collapse of the innings. But in the third session of Day 2, it wasn't reviews that dictated the narrative, it was fielding – the missed chances, the half-chances…
MATCH INFO
Another heart-stopping day of Test cricket! 14 wickets tumbled again on Day 2, for 239 runs, in 75.1 overs. It's anyone's guess which dressing room you'd rather be in right now. Australia were on the ropes, seemingly down for the count, but somehow found a lifeline through the gritty resistance of Carey and Starc. That being said, despite Australia's lead of 218, historically, Day 3 is considered the prime batting day at Lord's. So South Africa will firmly believe they're in the ascendancy, confident that anything under 250 is eminently chaseable from a Lord's perspective.

The ball zips flat towards Jansen at third slip, at waist height. Perhaps the close proximity of the slip fielders contributed to the error. Jansen stoops low, but ultimately puts it down.

Lyon pushes forward to defend a tempting delivery in that corridor of uncertainty. The ball moves subtly into him and takes a nick! It flies low to second slip who makes a meal of it! A fumble allows the batters to scurry through for a single and put another run on the board.

Lungi Ngidi, beaming with optimism, joins the commentary team. He believes his squad's in a prime position, acknowledging Australia's disciplined bowling that kept their total in check. However, the Proteas clawed their way back valiantly. He reflects on a challenging first innings, struggling to find the right areas. Post-tea on Day 2, he rediscovered his rhythm. Ngidi is energized by the incredible atmosphere, especially the crowd chanting his name. He reiterates the team's focus: bagging those final two Aussie wickets on Friday. Chasing anything above 200 will be a tall order considering Australia's fiery bowling attack, but the South Africans are still backing themselves to go all the way.
MATCH INFO
It's that unwavering belief that distinguishes champion teams, refusing to concede defeat. We've witnessed a cascade of 28 wickets across two days, yet predicting the frontrunner feels like a fool's errand – neither side has seized sustained dominance. The pendulum of momentum has swung wildly, with Australia's century partnerships after Lunch on Day 1 and Tea on Day 2 serving as prime examples – the only two of their kind in the match. The Aussies will feel much better now than when they were reeling at 73/7, but only a brave soul would call the game at this juncture. Friday looms as the potential decider, weather permitting, play kicks off at 3 pm IST (0930 GMT) on June 13th, 2025. Given the gripping cricket we've seen, this could very well go down to the wire on Day 3. Don't miss a single ball, folks! Tune in early for our comprehensive pre-match coverage. Until then, farewell and take care!
MATCH INFO
Credit where it's due to both these combatants. South Africa, staring down a 74-run deficit, appeared on the ropes. But they then ripped through Australia, reducing them to 73/7 after an opening stand of 28/0. From there, the Aussies somehow cobbled together a fightback deep into Day 3. It's been a day of topsy-turvy cricket. The morning session only produced a single wicket, contrasting sharply with the 13 that tumbled in the following two sessions. Batting is proving to be an exercise in survival, and even a modest 50-run partnership seems a Herculean task. Temba Bavuma owned the morning, leading a spirited Protean counter-attack from 43/4, though his aggressive intent ultimately led to his dismissal. Pat Cummins then dominated the middle session, tearing through the South African batting order to claim a remarkable 6-wicket haul. And finally, Lungi Ngidi redeemed himself from a lackluster first innings with a crucial 3-wicket burst in a relentless 9-over spell.
MATCH INFO
Regardless of Australia's batting woes, we must acknowledge South Africa's resilience. Seemingly out for the count after their first innings, they roared back with venom. Kagiso Rabada ignited the spark, but Lungi Ngidi undeniably stole the show, elevating his game to another dimension. The pivotal dismissal of Steve Smith injected him with boundless confidence, ensuring Australia couldn't build an insurmountable lead.
MATCH INFO
More question marks are surfacing over Australia's batting. It's difficult to fully decipher the meaning behind that late Carey-Starc alliance. Did the ball lose its zip? Did the pitch magically transform into a batting paradise? The most plausible explanation is that the ball softened after the 25th or 30th over, making life slightly easier. Still, there are no excuses for a batting lineup to implode twice in a single match, particularly when the stakes are so high. Australia might point to the challenging overcast conditions they faced, but that's precisely what Test cricket at its finest tests – mental fortitude. Alarmingly, with many senior players potentially retiring after the Ashes, a significant void looms within their inexperienced batting ranks, which appear to lack the technical prowess to withstand high-quality bowling. Carey's fighting spirit should have been mirrored by others, and the fact that not a single top-6 batter reached 25 is simply staggering.
MATCH INFO
Both these sides pride themselves on their fielding prowess, and Alex Carey had a day to forget on Wednesday. On Thursday, South Africa's standards slipped during that final session, with Kyle Verreynne failing to hold onto a tough chance, followed by Marco Jansen misjudging his positioning after moving from his original stance. Both drops were off Starc, and only time will reveal the true cost of these errors. Beyond these blunders, numerous edges fell short of the slip cordon, prompting questions about whether Kyle Verreynne, the keeper, should have positioned himself closer.
MATCH INFO
It's been a battle of attrition, fought tooth and nail. Day 1 – that missed review against Beau Webster, who then capitalized with a masterful 72. Day 2 – Pat Cummins' successful review against Kyle Verreynne, leading to an innings collapse. In the third session of Day 2, however, it wasn't the reviews that grabbed the spotlight – it was the fielding, or lack thereof.
MATCH INFO
Another heart-stopping day of Test cricket! 14 wickets tumbled once again on Day 2, yielding 239 runs in 75.1 overs. It's hard to say which camp you'd rather be in at this point. Australia, seemingly on the brink, somehow clung on thanks to Carey and Starc. Despite the lead standing at 218, history suggests that Day 3 is prime batting time at Lord's. South Africa will believe they have the upper hand, viewing anything under 250 as a chaseable target, given Lord's batting conditions.

Lungi Ngidi, beaming like a Cheshire cat, joins us. He reckons South Africa are sitting pretty. Australia bowled with real venom to restrict them, but he thinks the Proteas have roared back strongly. Ngidi admits he was a bit off-key in the first dig, searching for his radar. But post-tea on Day 2, the rhythm returned, and he was firing on all cylinders. He's absolutely buzzing from the crowd support, feeding off the energy when they chant his name – that's what keeps him going! The plan of attack for tomorrow? Snag those final two Aussie wickets ASAP! Chasing anything over 200 will be a dogfight against that Aussie attack, but Ngidi declares they'll back themselves to the hilt! A fascinating chase awaits!

Lungi Ngidi, beaming like a Cheshire cat, joins the commentary box. He believes the Proteas are sitting pretty, acknowledging that the Aussies bowled with tremendous discipline to restrict them to a below-par score. However, he emphasizes South Africa's spirited fightback. Ngidi admits the first innings was a struggle, feeling he missed his mark, but found his rhythm after Tea on Day 2. He's clearly buoyed by the crowd, energized by the chants of his name. Looking ahead to Friday, the immediate goal is to snatch those remaining two Aussie wickets. He concedes that chasing anything above 200 against Australia's potent attack won't be a cakewalk, but asserts that the South Africans are backing themselves all the way.
MATCH INFO
It's that unwavering self-belief that defines these top-tier teams. Never say die! Twenty-eight wickets have tumbled in just two days, yet the scales remain delicately balanced, with neither side able to seize prolonged dominance. This Test match has been a rollercoaster of momentum shifts. Australia's two century sessions – after Lunch on Day 1 and Tea on Day 2 – stand out as pivotal. The Aussies will feel more secure now than when they were teetering at 73/7, but predicting a winner at this stage would be foolish. Friday could be the curtain call on this match, but with rain looming, anything is possible. Play is scheduled for 3 pm IST (0930 GMT) on June 13th, 2025, weather gods permitting. Given the fiercely contested cricket we've witnessed, this contest may well come down to the wire, concluding in a dramatic final hour on Day 3. Don't miss a moment of the action; join us early for our pre-match analysis. Until then, adios and take care!
MATCH INFO
Credit where it's due! South Africa, facing a 74-run deficit, appeared to be on the ropes. Then, out of nowhere, they ripped through Australia, reducing them to 73/7 after an opening stand of 28. But the Aussies, resilient as ever, somehow clawed their way back into the game on Day 3. It's been a day of truly unpredictable cricket. The morning session yielded only a single wicket, while the subsequent two sessions saw a staggering 13 wickets fall. The conditions are proving treacherous for batsmen, with even a modest 50-run partnership feeling like a Herculean task. Temba Bavuma's counter-attacking innings in the morning, rescuing the Proteas from 43/4, was a sight to behold, although his aggressive approach ultimately led to his downfall. The middle session belonged to Pat Cummins, who tore through the South African batting order, bagging a magnificent 6-for. And then, as evening descended, Lungi Ngidi redeemed himself after a lackluster first innings with a crucial 3-wicket burst in a marathon 9-over spell.
MATCH INFO
Regardless of Australia's batting woes, South Africa deserve immense praise. They were seemingly down and out after their first innings but roared back with renewed vigor in the second. Kagiso Rabada set the aggressive tone, but the session's star has to be Lungi Ngidi, who elevated his game to another stratosphere. His pivotal dismissal of Steve Smith injected unparalleled confidence into the Proteas, ensuring that the Aussies couldn't stretch their lead beyond reach.
MATCH INFO
More question marks surrounding Australia's batting! It's difficult to decipher the significance of the Carey-Starc partnership. Did the ball lose its zip? Did the pitch suddenly become more batsman-friendly? The most plausible explanation is that the ball softened after the 25th or 30th over, offering some respite to the batsmen. However, there can be no excuses for a batting lineup of this caliber collapsing twice in a match, especially in the crucial stages. The Australians might argue that the overcast conditions during their batting innings were unfavorable, but that's what Test cricket at the highest level is all about - mental resilience. Alarmingly for the Aussies, with several senior players expected to retire after the Ashes, their inexperienced batting lineup, which lacks the technical prowess to handle quality bowling, leaves a gaping void. The fight shown by Carey should have been mirrored by the top order, and the fact that not a single top-six batsman reached 25 is simply unacceptable.
MATCH INFO
Both teams pride themselves on their fielding prowess, and Alex Carey certainly didn't live up to those standards on Wednesday. On Thursday, it was South Africa's turn to falter in the final session, with Kyle Verreynne unable to hold onto a difficult chance and Marco Jansen misjudging his position after moving forward from his original stance. Both dropped catches were off Starc, and only time will reveal how costly these mistakes will prove to be. Furthermore, numerous edges failed to carry to the slip cordon, prompting questions about Kyle Verreynne's positioning behind the stumps – why didn't he come up a few steps?
MATCH INFO
This match has been a real arm wrestle! On Day 1, a review against Beau Webster wasn't taken, and he went on to score 72. On Day 2, Pat Cummins successfully reviewed an LBW decision against Kyle Verreynne, ending the innings abruptly. But in the third session of Day 2, it wasn't reviews that proved decisive; it was fielding—or the lack thereof.
MATCH INFO
Another thrilling day of Test cricket comes to a close! 14 more wickets fell on Day 2, for 239 runs, in 75.1 overs. It's hard to say which dressing room has the happier faces right now. Australia were in dire straits, but Carey and Starc somehow managed to keep them afloat. Despite the lead of 218, historically, the third day is considered the best for batting at Lord's. So, South Africa will believe they have the upper hand, considering that anything under 250 should be within their grasp from a Lord's perspective.
