Makhaya Ntini took 10 match wickets as South Africa won the second Test at Lord's wioth some degree of ease.

Along the way, a jubilant crowd was treated to an exhilarating ton by Andrew Flintoff, who was finally stumped for 142.

But the visitors dominated proceedings ever since skipper Graeme Smith made his mark with a fabulous 259.

England 417 all-out (Flintoff 142)

1647: Flintoff is enjoying himself and entertaining a still large Lord's crowd. With limited footwork, he clubs Hall for six.

1638: Anderson has still to be got out in Test cricket, but that record may not last long to judge by his flailing efforts.

1635: Flintoff is in full attack mode now, aware that he is almost out of partners. A crashing blow narrowly evades a fielder before going for four.

England 371-9 (Harmison 7)

1617: Flintoff hammers a drive off the back foot to take four off Ntini.

1604: Boucher drops an edge off Harmison and the batsmen take two.

1601: Flintoff runs a sharp single off the last ball of Ntini's over to retain the strike.

1555: Brainlessly, England allow Harmison to run a single off the last ball of the over.

1552: Pollock gets South Africa a little closer to victory by striking in his first over after the interval, Gough driving loosely to cover.
England 344-8 (Gough 14)

1423: England now need an unrealistic 250 to make South Africa bat again.

1415: Flintoff launches Adams dead straight for a big six which slams the sightscreen at the Nursery End.

1410: Giles and Flintoff enter a watchful phase with Adams and Hall on.
