WTC Final 2025 Day 1 Highlights : 5 wickets a day. From Rabada to the stark, the helpless batters in the two camp pacers. If this is the title of the first day of the Test Championship final, then there is a rare occurrence in Lords in the back of that title. Which did not happen in the 7 -year history of the Test on England soil.
The first Test match between England and Australia was held at the Oval in the 5th. Then there were 5 Test matches on England soil. But for the first time, the two -innings batter (according to the batting order) was out zero. Osman Khwaja in Australia on Wednesday and the Aiden Markram of South Africa returned to the pavilion before opening the account. In all, such an event happened tenth time in the test.
Australia’s Steve Smith played a fighter innings of 5 runs in the midst of bowlers on Wednesday. Smith scored two half -centuries in two consecutive innings in the Test Championship. This is his seventh 5 runs in the Knock Out match of the ICC. He went to the top of Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin played six innings of more than 6 runs in the ICC knockout. Smith is still lagging behind Virat Kohli in the list. Kagiso Rabada has also set a record. He has taken 12 wickets in 5 Tests right now. He was hit by Alan Donald on the list of most wickets for South Africa. There are three in front of him. Dale Steyn (1), Shaun Pollock (120), Makhaya Nantini (3).
It should be noted that the Aussie batter could not burn in the first innings of the World Test Championship final. But the last time Pat Cummins-Michele Starcra returned to the team. Proteas captain Temba Babuma decided to win the toss at the Lord’s Wednesday. In the cloudy weather, the Aussie batter has been seen in front of the Proteas Pace battery from the beginning.

Then Ryan Rickleton, Wean Mulder, Tristan Stabs- everyone failed. At the end of the day, the Proteas were able to score only 5 runs on the scoreboard. Four batters in the pavilion.
