The toss favoured South Africa captain Aiden Markam and the decision to field first under overcast conditions paid off rich. Marco Jansen, renowned for his new ball exploits, found the right line and length e🌸arly and did the talking with the ball in the first over itself. Centurion from the previous game Sanju Samson’s stay lasted on♒ly three balls, courtesy of a peach from the tall lanky pacer.
Samson looked to make room by shuffling towards th෴e leg stump line from the second ball itself before it cost him big time. Jansen bowled a fuller than a good length delivery at the middle stump line that seamed enough to beat Samson’s inside edge and knock the leg stump. The Kerala batter intended for a lofteꦛd drive but played the wrong line after misjudging the variation, leaving him in tatters. Seeing Samson’s back-to-back tons get followed by a golden duck, the Twitterverse felt for the batter.
