20 balls, 0 runs... Usman Khawaja's gets trolled for his innings at WTC final against South Africa

Dubai: Australia endured a tough time on the opening day of the World Test Championship (WTC) final against South Africa at Lord's on Wednesday.

But opener Usman Khawaja stole the limelight for his 20-ball duck and became a subject to troll on social media.

Australia’s experienced opener found it difficult during his 20-ball stay before he was removed by South Africa’s spearhead Kagiso Rabada in the seventh over.

Rabada delivered a fourth-stump line that squared Khawaja up; the Australian was caught on the crease, edged the ball, and David Bedingham at first slip took a sharp, wobbling catch.

Earlier, South Africa captain Temba Bavuma won the toss and opted to bowl under the gloomy sky at Lord's cricket ground.

Australia were 67 for four at lunch with Steve Smith batting on 26.

After winning the toss, South Africa captain Temba Bavuma said, "We will have a bowl first, looking at the overhead conditions. Too late to change the team; we have selected the best combination. All 15 of us are confident. It is a massive final; it should be a spectacle out here."

Australia skipper Pat Cummins was happy to bat and said during the time of the toss, "Happy to bat first. Looks like a good wicket with a few clouds. Prep wise it has been unreal, 15 guys working very hard for that title. You get used to it the more you are playing, we have had about 10 days prep and we are ready. Doesn't feel like any extra pressure. WE've been here before and we've won it. This week is all about enjoying the moment."
