South African fast bowler Marco Johnson has equaled the incredible world record made 120 years ago. Marco Jensen has now become the joint-lowest wicket-taker in Test cricket with seven wickets. Yanasan bowled stormily in the first match of the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka in Durban. The Sri Lankan team was forced to surrender before Johnson and the entire team collapsed for just 42 runs. The South African team also could not make a big score, but still got a lead of 149 runs.

Talking about Marco Jensen’s world record, he took 7 wickets for 13 runs in 6.5 overs.

Along with this, Stuart Broad of England took seven wickets in seven overs against Australia in 2015. In this way, after 120 years, a bowler has taken seven wickets in 41 balls. Marco Jansson opened his claws in just five overs and pushed Sri Lanka on the backfoot.

In this rain-interrupted match, when the Sri Lankan team bowled out the host South Africa for 191 runs, it seemed that the Sri Lankan team could take the lead in this match. However, South Africa did not allow this to happen.

The first blow to the Sri Lankan team was on the total score of 6 runs and after that wickets kept falling one after the other. Sri Lankan batsmen did not have the break of Marco Jensen. Apart from this, he also failed against Gerald Coetzee and Kagiso Rabada. Coetzee took two wickets and Rabada took one wicket and the entire team was out for 42 runs in 13.5 overs.
