India vs South Africa: The second test match between India and South Africa is being played at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. In this do or die match, the star player of the Indian team has proved to be the villain. This player has increased the tension of Team India by dropping a simple catch. The entire team had to pay the price for a catch drop bigger than this. The Indian team’s best slip fielder ruined Jasprit Bumrah’s wicket-taking intentions.
A big mistake by an excellent fielder
What happened was that Jasprit Bumrah was bowling in the 7th over of South Africa’s first innings and KL Rahul was standing in the slips. Aiden Markram was standing in front at the crease, who was almost caught out on a brilliant ball by Bumrah. But, Rahul made a mistake and dropped the catch in the slip. The South African batsman took full advantage of this mistake made by the Indian fielder. He made a partnership of 82 runs with Ryan Rickleton for the first wicket. A simple catch by Rahul has become a challenge for the entire team.

However, Team India’s bowlers had to wait a long time to take the first wicket. Ultimately, it was Jasprit Bumrah who showed the way out to Aiden Ko in the 27th over. Like last time, he didn’t even have the trouble of taking a catch because he simply hit the bats.
