South Africa are all set to clash against Australia for the World Test Championship (WTC) final at the Lord's Cricket Ground.
South Africa's bowling lineup consists of the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi, and Marco Jansen, whereas Australia's pacer attack includes Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood.
Ahead of the title clash, legendary England pacer James Anderson gave advice to the pacers by saying, "A lot of people talk about the top of off stump being the ideal length, but I think here it's more three-quarters up the stump. That way you are a little bit fuller in length, so that's my advice for the seamers. Here is definitely somewhere you need to pitch the ball up".
