Yeah, it was turning a foot at both ends, with steep bounce from the Pavilion end to keeping low at times from the Nursery end.
Most strange for a Lord's wicket. Very tricky.
Have to stress, England did have a lot of fortune though ... de Kock was most unlucky to be out bowled off bat,
pad AND boot ... excellent player who needs to bat up the order.

S Africa have their problems for Trent Bridge bowling wise with Rabada and (subject to a doctor's report) Philander out of action.
Small mercy though as the excellent skipper Faf du Plessis is back.
