Watch day two of first LV= Insurance Test between England and South Africa, at Lord's, live on Sky Sports Cricket on Thursday. Collingwood on Zak Crawley: "The messaging is very clear with Zak. We don't necessarily look for consistency with him. Our mantra of trying to put the opposition under pressure, he did that brilliantly. He batted exceptionally well and showed a lot of skill. Root can perhaps consider himself rather unlucky to be given out lbw to left-armer Jansen (1-18).

Rabada, reflecting on the styles of South Africa’s four quicks, said: “I think we’ve got some pace, we’ve got bounce, we’ve got guys who can swing it, guys who can bowl quick bumpers, so in terms of a pace attack I think we have all the ingredients to be a formidable one.” Pope was now batting with the tail, but rain spared England from further punishment at the hands of the Proteas pace attack, with only Lungi Ngidi yet to take a wicket. Pope completed a 69-ball fifty but, with the very last delivery of the session, Nortje squared up Stokes to have the all-rounder caught in the slips for 20, leaving England on 100-5 at the interval. But he was bowled for a five-ball duck by Nortje as he tried to drive on the up, with England slumping to 55-4. “The one thing when you are on wickets with lots of assistance, you don’t want the bowler to think he can put it in the same area and get results,” he added.

Over-by-over report: Will South Africa keep the pressure on the hosts or can Ben Stokes's side recover? Find out with our writers.

55th over: South Africa 192-4 ( vd Dussen 19, Jansen 1 ) Fully distracted by my daughter reading out the Royal Family’s A level results, but can reliably say that was great ball by Stokes. The lead creeps up to fifty. Maharaj hits two boundaries in three balls off Broad, one an edge through the slips that has Broad down on his haunches, the other cuts a pie. His last ball nearly squeaks through the gap between Jansen’s bat and pad. 70th over: South Africa 236-6 ( Jansen 14, Maharaj 18) Maharaj and Jansen rather milk Potts here, a four each as the lead creeps up to 71. Seven off Leach including a lanky loft by Jansen to the long-on boundary. What else would you put in the mix? I think the venn diagram would be interesting! He ducks safely under the final bouncer and that is stumps! That felt like a mini epic – defiantly South Africa’s day but endlessly entertaining by England who threw themselves at it. It is a mixture of things, confidence after playing enough Test cricket to learn through those games, and belief from performances.” That’s it from us for today – thanks for sticking with our new system, quirks and all.

England vs South Africa, 1st Test, Day 2 Live: England will begin Day 2 at 116/6 with Ollie Pope and Stuart Broad, standing unbeaten at the crease.

Maharaj moves to the left and catches this mistimed slog. In the slot from KG to tempt Stokes and the England captain is in the trap. Anderson steps out, Marco Jansen yorks him to hit low of the off stump with an outswinger. And they stretched the lead to 161 this morning.
