Maphaka, 19, mixed raw pace with aggression to claim the scalps of Tim David, Mitchell Owen, Adam Zampa and Ben Dwarshuis at Marrara Stadium on Sunday.
He first uprooted Owen’s off stump with a 144kph delivery, and conceded only 14 runs off the 11 balls he bowled to David before removing him in the penultimate over. Maphaka also engaged in a spirited exchange with David, something his teammate Ryan Rickelton said summed up the pacer’s competitive streak.
"He's quite a fiery character. (But) he's very relaxed, very quiet in the change room. He had a bit of a go at Tim (David) there, but he's very competitive. He backs his ability which is great. It's cool to see a young guy stand up to Australia in their backyard." Read More...
