Date:  17th August 2022

Time: 03:30 PM IST

Venue: Lord’s, London.

Pitch Condition: The first Test match will be played at The Lord’s. The pitch at Lord’s is a well-balanced one for both batters and bowlers in red-ball cricket. Pacers may trouble the batters at first on day one, but later the pitch will favour the batters. The teams batting first have won more matches in Lord’s. The average first innings score is 311.

England vs South Africa – The Squad

England:  Alex Lees, Harry Brook, Ollie Pope, Zak Crawley, Ben Stokes (C), Joe Root, Ben Foakes, Jonny Bairstow, Craig Overton, Jack Leach, James Anderson, Matthew Pots, Ollie Robinson, Stuart Broad.

England vs South Africa – Performance in the Past Matches

Last month, South Africa beat England in the 3-match T20I series 2-1 and leveled the ODI series 1-1. Now both teams are set to clash again in the 3-match Test series. South Africa is leading the World Test Championship table with 5 wins out of 7 matches they have played so far in the schedule. England, on the other hand, is currently in the 7th position on the table, losing most of the test matches they have played in the last year. But with the Bazball approach under Brendan McCullum, they may be more aggressive in the longest format. Also, England won their last Test match against India, and before that, they defeated New Zealand 3-0.
