ICC World Test Championship Final: In what was another see-saw day of Test match action, where 14 wickets fell again, Australia captain Pat Cummins’ sensational spell of 6-28 and Alex Carey’s fighting 43 ensured that the current mace holders extended their lead past 200 on Day Two of 2025 ICC World Test Championship Final at Lord’s on Thursday.

Cummins had earlier given his team a vital 74-run lead after his brilliant spell, including him reaching the landmark of 300 Test wickets, led to South Africa being dismissed for 138. Though Kagiso Rabada and Lungi Ngidi took three-fers, Carey’s timely knock, laced with five boundaries, ensured Australia went past 200 in terms of lead.
