It was none other than Jasprit Bumrah who gave team India the first breakthrough of India vs South Africa 2nd Test (IND vs SA 2nd Test) at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati. The full lenght delivery from Bumrah took an edge from Aiden Markram's bat and disturbed the stumps. 

The second of the 2-match Test match between India and South Africa is underway at Guwahati. Unlike the rank turner in Kolkata, the pitch in Guwahati has some cover of grass and bounce. Aiden Markram and Ryan Rickelton, the opening pair of South Africa, got their team a good start in the morning. India was gasping for the first breakthough to break the partnership. 

The home team could have gotten an early wicket if KL Rahul at the slip did not missed the catch. After that, SA batters were doing their tasks swiftly in the middle. Rishabh Pant, team India skipper for the match as Shubman Gill was ruled out of the game because of the neck injury he sustained during IND vs. SA 1st Test at the Eden Gardens. After the wicket-less overs from Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, and Nitish Kumra Reddy, Pant brought the spinners- Washington Sundar and Kuldeep Yadav- into the attack.

Jasprit Bumrah took Aiden Markera in IND vs SA 2nd Test

Just before the Tea break, Bumrah paid off the trust the captain showed in him. A wicket, a much needed wicket to make the contest more competitive. Markram was on his back toe because the previous deliveries created by Bumrah, and perhaps he expected another short or back of the lenght delivery from the pacer. Because of the red soil, bowlers were getting extra bounce from the pitch.

On the 5th delivery of the 27th over of the first innings, the Indian pacer went for a slightly fuller length delivery. Markram tried to drive the ball dwon the ground with a straight bat with a fixed front leg. In a result, the ball nips back in to catch the inside edge, and it crashes back onto the stumps. Aiden Markram falls for 38 (81).
