Cape Town (Uttam Hindu News)-TThe second test match between India and South Africa is being played at Newlands Stadium. South Africa won the toss and chose to bat first, which proved to be a wrong decision. The team could not even last till the lunch session was over. 11 players batted only 23.2 overs. Team India’s fast bowler Mohammad Siraj bowled brilliantly and took 6 wickets for 15 runs. Jasprit Bumrah and Mukesh Kumar got 2-2 wickets. The entire South African team was all out for 55 runs. This is the team’s smallest score against India. Earlier in 2015, the team could score only 79 runs on Nagpur ground. Mohammed Siraj was the first to read the fast pitch of Cape Town and his first victim was Aiden Markram. On his out swing, Markram caught Jaiswal in the slip. After this, Siraj expressed his intentions by bowling South African captain Dean Elgar. He achieved his third success by dismissing Tony De Georgi. But in his 8th over, this fast bowler broke the back of the South African team by dismissing first Bedingham and then Yanson.
