South Africa vs India:<\/strong> In the ongoing test match between South Africa & India, India have got this match in their grasp as they have asserted a first-inning lead of 197 runs. Mohammad Shami played a huge part as he picked up 5 wickets today. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

In the 62nd over of the South African innings, Shami, who already had picked up 4 wickets - Markram (13), Petersen (15), Bavuma (52) & Mulder (12), surprised Kagiso Rabada with a bit of swing. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The South African bowler was looking comfortable while batting until this delivery by Mohammad Shami. Shami delivered the ball back of a length on off and round the wicket. The ball straightened a bit as the ball took Rabada's bat's edge and flew to wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. Rabada was dismissed after scoring 25 runs with 3 fours & 1 six. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

With this wicket, not only did Mohammad Shami complete his 6th 5-fer in international test cricket, he also completed 200 wickets in test cricket. Shami has achieved this feat in 55 matches, averaging 27.10. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
