What can be more exciting for any new player than to put the opposition team on the backfoot by performing brilliantly on his home ground for the first time. West Indies' young fast bowler Shamar Joseph has also done something similar. This 24-year-old West Indies bowler wreaked such havoc with his fast bowling on the first day of the second Test against South Africa that the visiting team was stunned.
In this match being played at Providence Stadium in Guyana, the South African team fell to the knees in front of the brilliant bowling of Shamar Joseph. The stadium in Guyana is Shamar's home ground and he is playing a Test here for the first time.
Deadly bowling by Shamar Joseph
Shamar took 5 wickets in 12.1 overs. The bowler created a sensation by bowling out South African opener Aiden Markram for 14 runs in the 11th over. After this, he took the wicket of captain Temba Bavuma on the second ball and sent him to the pavilion for zero. After this, he brought South Africa to its knees by dismissing David Bedingham for 28 runs in the 29th over, Wiaan Mulder for zero in the 30th over and wicketkeeper Kyle Verne for 21 runs. The special thing is that Shamar is playing in the 10th innings of his sixth Test. In which he has taken 5 wickets for the third time.
The seals worked great too
Along with Shamar, Jaden Seals has also bowled lethally in this match so far. Seals has taken 3 wickets for 32 runs in his first 10 overs. Along with this, Jason Holder has taken one wicket. The poor condition of South Africa can be gauged from the fact that it lost 9 wickets for 97 runs.
