South Africa off-spinner Simon Harmer continues to produce stunning deliveries during the ongoing two-match Test series against Team India. Harmer got rid of opener KL Rahul on Day 4 (Tuesday, November 25) of the second Test at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium with a ball that any off-spinner would delight in.
The Proteas declared their second innings at 260/5, with a lead of 548. Tristan Stubbs was dismissed after scoring 94 runs off 180 balls, including nine boundaries and one six. Ravindra Jadeja picked up four wickets, while Washington Sundar bagged one. The other bowlers failed to take any wickets in the innings.
Simon Harmer produced a brilliant delivery in the 10th over. Harmer tossed the ball up outside off, drawing KL Rahul forward. The ball then spun sharply from the rough, sneaking through the gap between bat and pad and crashing into the stumps.
Rahul tried to play across the line and left too much space for the ball to sneak in. His forward stride and closed bat face only made the mistake worse. The wicket left India in deeper trouble, with both openers back in the pavilion.
Harmer, enjoying a superb series, added another wicket to his name. Rahul had to walk back to the dressing room after scoring 6 off 29 balls. India lost their second wicket with just 21 runs on the board.
