Team India pacer Jasprit Bumrah pulled off a stunning reflex catch on the second day (Thursday, January 4) of the second Test against South Africa at the Newlands in Cape Town. His brilliant effort sent Marco Jansen back to the pavilion. The pacer was in great rhythm in the innings, running through the South African batting line-up.
Marco Jansen walked out to bat at No. 7 for South Africa, after the fall of Kyle Verreynne’s wicket. He looked dangerous at the crease. He slammed a couple of boundaries and raced away to eleven runs. However, in the 24th over, Jasprit Bumrah sent the right-handed batter back to the hut.
The pacer bowled a pitched-up delivery at 139kph. Marco Jansen shuffled around to drive, making good contact. However, he hit it straight back to the bowler, who took a great catch with both hands in his follow-through. Bumrah threw the ball up in the air and let out a roar to celebrate the dismissal.
