I didn't see any stats on Cricinfo unfortunately but hopefully they will have some at the end of the match.
The big one from day two is Solar Panel Pat taking 300 test wickets and takes his 9th five wicket haul as captain, equal with Richie Benaud.

It's the best figures by a captain in a test at Lord's and according to Wisden, Cummins is the first captain since Vettori in 2008 to take a five wicket haul at Lords.

Didn’t look out live but DRS couldn’t be wrong.

SA 6/126

It was weird, I thought it was going well down leg live.

Same, I gave it no hope.

Worst part is now they can't really push Marnus out of the door for an opening role when he outscored Uzi in both innings.
