We need some new attacking bowlers Boom alone can't perform everytime!!

Vishal K: "Really love this kid - Jurel. absolute Livewire in the field, and has such great attitude for a youngster - ready to do anything for the team - batting, keeping, diving around….and for a youngster, he has great temperament to just focus on task at hand and do the best he can for the team in whatever chances he gets . deserves a long rope imho!"

Ananya: "I think Jaddu and Washi will have an impact in the second innings than Bum-Siraj...!"

Bappa: "The evolution of Indian cricket has been remarkable. Who could have imagined two decades ago that a playing eleven would consist of six bowlers, three wicket-keepers, and eight batters?"

South Africa 1st Innings

44.1 Siraj to Verreynne, OUT

That should be out, yeah given! Looked like pad first. Verreynne has a chat with Stubbs.... and reviews! 136ks outswinger on a length. But it went in with the angle after landing on off. May actually have decked in a touch. Verreynne's back pad came in the way of the bat as he looked to block it to the bowler's left. Ball hit front pad and then bat. Went to the off side, they went for the run. In the end, it mattered not. Finally some reward for Siraj.

Day 1 - Session 2: South Africa chose to bat.

Current RR: 3.29

• Min. Ov. Rem: 45.2

• Last 10 ov (RR): 18/2 (1.80)

Now it is Siraj's turn to inflict the damage. Two wickets in one over.

Well Done Siraj!

Jiten : "Have said this before and am saying here again - Jadeja has become more of a batting all rounder now than the bowling all rounder he used to be. He doesn't look as threatening as a spinner in India as he used to be!"

Siraj always takes wickets in his second spell.

Siraj to Marco Jansen, out Bowled!! Second wicket in the over from Siraj as this one goes through gate. 130.8kph, tailing in off a length, Jansen is half-forward to block and the ball sneaks through the bat-pad gap to hit the top of off-middle. Marco Jansen b Siraj 0(3)

Siraj to Marco Jansen, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
