India National Cricket Team pacer Shardul Thakur castled South Africa National Cricket Team captain Temba Bavuma, who is going through a lean patch, with an absolute peach of a delivery in the ODI series opener.

The first ODI of the three-match ODI series between India and South Africa, which is part of the ongoing South Africa tour of India 2022, is being played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow on Thursday, October 6.

India National Cricket Team pacer Shardul Thakur, who provided the opening breakthrough to India by dismissing opener Janneman Malan, came to bowl the 15th over of the innings and on the last ball of the over, he cleaned up the Proteas skipper with a brilliant delivery.

The Indian pacer bowled with a cross seam on a good length on the fifth stump. The ball shaped in and the Proteas captain was beaten by the excessive movement. Bavuma came forward to play the drive, but he left a gap between bat and pad and the ball sneaked through to hit off and middle-stump.

Temba Bavuma has had an extremely poor run with the bat in the ongoing South Africa tour of India 2022 and he has faced heavy criticism for his poor performances for an extended period of time.

In the recently concluded, three-match T20I series against India, where Team India won by 2-1, the Proteas white-ball captain registered scores of 0, 0 and 3.

In the first ODI against India, he scored 8 runs off 12 balls, including two fours, before being castled by Thakur. This was the 4th consecutive time in the series that Bavuma has fallen for a single-digit score.

Overall, on the India tour, Bavuma has faced 31 balls and has scored just 11 runs at an average of 2.75. Also, it took him 27 balls to register his first boundary on the ongoing tour.
