Left-arm spinner Keshav Maharaj took four for 85 in 32.1 overs, with the new ball duo of Kagiso Rabada (three for 50) Morne Morkel (three for 64) sharing the remaining six wickets between them in the first of this four-Test series.
Only once have a side made more than 300 to win in the fourth innings of a Test at Lord's, with West Indies, on the back of Gordon Greenidge's brilliant unbeaten double century, posting 344 for one to defeat England by nine wickets in 1984.
