South Africa vs India: In the ongoing 3rd test match between South Africa and India, India were restricted to 230 in the first innings after opting to bat first. In reply, South Africa ended the day at 17/1, with Bumrah dismissing African captain Dean Elgar before Stumps. At the start of Day 2, Bumrah struck again!

At the start of day 2, Bumrah was handed the responsibility to bowl the first over. On the first delivery, Aiden Markram looked to defend a short length ball. However, the ball straightened after the bounce and took Markram's bat's outside edge. 

On the second bowl, with the previous delivery in mind, Markram decided to leave the ball. Jasprit Bumrah pitched a good length delivery which 'decked' in dislodged top of off stump as Markram stood there with both hands and his bat in the air. Team India were overjoyed with this early wicket in the day.
