[Watch] Jasprit Bumrah knocks over Aiden Markram on 2nd ball of Day


India speedster Jasprit Bumrah continued his good run from Day 1 of the Cape Town against South Africa, and castled Aiden Markram in the very first over of the second day's play. Bumrah had clinched the wicket of South Africa captain, Dean Elgar for three runs on Day 1 of the series decider.


It was a straightforward setup. Bowling from over the wicket, the pacer started with a good length ball that jagged away from Markram and took a thin edge that rolled to the gully fielder. The next ball was a nip-backer from the same point and Markram misjudged it, shouldering his arms and allowing it to hit his stumps.

Bumrah had similarly dismissed Rassie van der Dussen in the first Test. On that occasion, the ball had swung and seamed in massively from a wide-angle, giving the batter no chance. This time, Markram had time to play a forward defense but failed to do so. The wicket reduced the hosts to 17-2 after just 8.2 overs.
