VIDEO: Jasprit Bumrah Smacks Kagiso Rabada For A Wonderful Six; Better Half Applauds From The Stands

In the ongoing second test match between South Africa and India at Johannesburg, Indian stand-in captain KL Rahul won the toss & opted to bat first. India were bowled out but not before Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah treated the fans with the bat. 

Jasprit Bumrah came out to bat at #10 and scored 14 runs off 11 balls. In this innings, Bumrah only dealt in boundaries, with 2 fours & a six to his name. In the 62nd over being bowled by Rabada, Bumrah smacked a four on the first ball. 

On the third ball, however, Bumrah displayed exceptional batting skills. Rabada pitched a short delivery to the tail-ender, and Bumrah went for the hook shot! The ball caught the bat's top edge but still managed to fly over fine leg for six runs. The camera showed us Japrit Bumrah's wife applauding the shot in the stands as well.
