BAN vs SA | Twitter Reacts to Hasan Mahmud’s Magical Delivery Leaving Markram Speechless and Off-Stump Broken

For a fast bowler, the sound of a stump breaking instantly ignites excitement among him and his team. This was the case in the first Test between South Africa and Bangladesh at Dhaka when Hasan Mahmud unleashed a fiery delivery that dismissed South African skipper Aiden Markram and broke the off-stump. 

It was a day dominated by South Africa in the first Test match against Bangladesh, as they bowled first and bundled the visitors out for just 106 runs, thanks to three wickets each from Wiaan Mulder, Kagiso Rabada, and Keshav Maharaj. In response, Aiden Markram and Tony de Zorzi opened the batting for the Proteas, but things quickly took a turn when Hasan Mahmud spectacularly dismissed the South African skipper.

On the last ball of the first over, Mahmud delivered a length ball that angled into the stumps. Markram aimed to play defensively but misjudged the line. Expecting the ball to move away after pitching, he was caught off guard as it slipped through the gap and clipped the top of the off-stump. Markram looked completely astonished as the ball veered unexpectedly. Mahmud celebrated his first breakthrough with joy, while his teammates rushed in to join the festivities. The Twitterverse buzzed with excitement over Mahmud’s impressive delivery and the pivotal wicket.

Oh! WOW!! Once again he goes!

What a blunder again!

Aiden Markram is the KL Rahul of South Africa test setup and has got pretty identical numbers to support this claim as well in 72 innings Markram has scored 2516 runs and Rahul in 91 innings has scored 2981 runs at a sub 36 average for both of them #SAvsBAN #TestCricket

He is not getting his touch back!

I need Aiden Markram to deal with all the demons in his head.

I need him to be as confident as a batter as he is as a captain. Come on, Aidz.
