Morning sessions of a test match, especially the first 30 mins are the ones where the players are trying to get into a rhythm, warming up their bodies. However, the times have changed and the players are ready to be at their best even on the first ball of the day. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

This characteristic is generally seen in young players and mostly those who are trying their best in every aspect to make themselves a permanent member of the team, like Keegan Petersen. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Petersen is having a terrific test match. He had a fair share of luck but with his talent and skill, Petersen scored 72 runs on day 2 of the third test against a well-oiled Indian bowling lineup. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

His great outing continued on day 3 as well. On just the second ball of the day, Petersen grabbed a superman catch at the leg slip to get rid of the overnight batter, Cheteshwar Pujara. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

South Africa had decided to apply a leg trap against Pujara with a leg slip and a short leg in place. The 6 foot 8 inches Marco Jansen used his height to great use and made Pujara play. The ball went towards the gap between leg slip and wicketkeeper but Petersen jumped. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
