Josh Hull Maiden Test Wicket: England's young bowling sensation Josh Hull has sclaped his first-ever Test international wicket and seems to be living up to the hype which was created by local experts before the 20-year-old's debut.
The left-arm pacer, who stands at 6ft 7in tall dismisses the in-form and highly dangerous Pathum Nissanka with a beautiful seam delivery, which then deceived the Sri Lankan batter as he was caught by Chris Woakes in what was a stunning catch at the covers.
It took the English pacer merely 3 overs to scalp his first wicket, and England are really dominating the proceedings on Day 2 at the Kennington Oval in London.

Josh Hull Receives Debut Cap From England Legend Andrew Flintoff; Turns Out To Be An Emotional Moment | WATCH
The 6ft 7in tall player from Cambridgeshire received his debut from one of the greatest all-rounders the sport has ever seen, Andrew Flintoff, and while delivering the cap to the 20-year-old, the former England all-rounder got extremely emotional and his speech, later, turned the debutant's mother emotional too.
"A big welcome to Josh's family as well. I am going to hand it over to Fred," said England head coach Brendon McCullum during the presentation of debut cap to Josh Hull.
"Thanks Baz," acknowledged Andrew Flintoff.
"Yeah, I have got the incredible opportunity to present the Test Cap today and it's something I definitely do not take lightly. It's so nice that the family are here to share that as well because being a parent myself and just how much you go through, driving them everywhere and taking them to places but also the nerves of watching your kids play. But hopefully, you (Josh Hull) are going to have a great week this week," said Andrew Flintoff in an emotional speech.
