Proteas

The Proteas had resumed their second innings on 213-2 and needed 69 runs to wrap up victory on day four at Lord's.

Should the Proteas wrap up the win it would go a long way towards banishing a nickname they have come to despise: chokers.

Australia initially put themselves in a strong position on day two, dismissing the Proteas for 138 in response to their own first-innings total of 212.

David Bedingham top-scored for the Proteas with 45, one of four players in their side who made it into double figures in their total of 138.

Proteas quick bowler Kagiso Rabada claimed five of them after he helped skittle Australia for 212 shortly after the tea interval.
