Watch: Marco Jansen dismisses Rishabh Pant during IND vs SA 2nd Test in Guwahati
Watch the video where the left-arm pacer of the South Africa side, Marco Jansen, dismissed the stand-in India captain, Rishabh Pant, during the second Test in Guwahati between India and South Africa.
When India’s left-handed opening batter, Yashasvi Jaiswal, celebrates a half-century during the second Test against South Africa at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati, India was in a strong position of around 100 runs for the loss of one wicket. But they perhaps didn’t expect the turn of the tables in the next few overs of the game.
There were a few nonsense shots from the India batters including the one from Sai Sudharsan, who pulled the short ball from Simon Harmer into the hands of the leg sided fielder, who grabbed a fine catch to send India’s number three back into the hut or the one from Dhurv Jurel, who was bounced out by Marco Jansen at the stroke of the tea break.

And the same trend continued even after the break as India’s stand-in captain for the contest, Rishabh Pant, looked to charge down the ground against Jansen at the start of the second session. But the ball moved a little and took the feather of his blade as the wicket-keeper, Kyle Verryenne, grabbed an easy catch.

India made a solid start with the bat, thanks to the 65-run opening stand with Jaiswal collecting a fine knock of 58 runs in 97 deliveries with the help of seven boundaries and one six at a strike rate of nearly 60, while KL Rahul, on 22, got an outside edge into the hands of the slip fielder against the left-arm spinner, Keshav Maharaj.
After Pant’s dismissal, Nitish Kumar Reddy also took the path back to the pavilion on 10 runs, while Ravindra Jadeja couldn’t handle the short ball on six and went back to the dressing room.
SA had already posted 489 runs on the board in the first innings thanks to Senuran Muthusamy, who clubbed a fine century, while Jansen nailed a fine knock of 93 runs off 91 deliveries at a strike rate of 102.20 with the help of six boundaries and seven sixes. Their top order also got starts, even though they couldn’t get a big score.
