India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah’s dual-wicket spell right before the end of play on Day 4 has helped his team in gaining a substantial advantage in the first Test of the ongoing tour of South Africa in Centurion.
Chasing a 305-run target, a 40-run partnership for the third wicket between South Africa captain Dean Elgar (52*) and batter Rassie van der Dussen (8) had appeared the provide stability to their innings.
However, Bumrah’s final burst saw him dismissing van der Dussen and nightwatchman Keshav Maharaj (8) in quick succession. In fact, Maharaj’s dismissal ended up becoming the last delivery of the day. South Africa, who need 211 more runs to win the match, have six wickets in hands on what should be an enthralling day of Test cricket.
Jasprit Bumrah,,,,,game changer!
