Bavuma slammed a magnificent half-century and played Pakistan National Cricket Team bowlers with ease. He played crisp shots in his innings and added 119 runs in partnership with Matthew Breetzke, who ended with a score of 83 runs.

Bavuma was looking all set for a magical ton but had an unfortunate end to his innings as a mix-up with Matthew Breetzke saw him getting run out. It happened during the last ball of the 29th over when Mohammad Hasnain was bowling.

The pacer bowled a good length ball around off, to which Temba Bavuma guided it to backward point and set off for a quick single. Matthew Breetzke responded but aborted his call after taking a start but Bavuma was halfway down the pitch.

Saud Shakeel then came up with the magical effort as he fired a direct hit at the striker's end and Temba Bavuma was not even close to the crease. What caught the attention of many was the celebration of the Pakistan National Cricket Team.

Kamran Ghulam came in running and gave an aggressive send-off to Temba Bavuma right in front of the batter. Saud Shakeel joined in as well before Salman Agha also came up with the same reaction. The South Africa captain had to stop his walk back and wait for Pakistan's players to get out of his way. Even the umpires had a word about it to captain Mohammad Rizwan.
