Ajinkya Rahane golden duck IND vs SA 2nd test
The second match of the three-test series between India and South Africa is played in Johannesburg. In this match, the India team’s mid-level hitter Ajinkya Rahane has recorded an embarrassing record on his behalf by coming out in a golden duck. Rahane, who came to bat after the expulsion of Cheteshwar Pujara (3), gave his wicket to Duane Olivier on the first ball. Keegan Pietersen, posted in the direction of the street, caught Rahane’s brilliant capture and showed him the way to the pavilion.
Rahane is playing the 81st game of his career in Test and is looking for a golden duck for the first time. Previously, he was out for a duck 9 times, but was never out on the first ball of innings. This is also Rahane’s first duck against South Africa.

Looking at the record of this right-handed hitter getting sacked by a duck in the Test career, Rahane has been sacked the most times against England without opening an account. At the same time, against Sri Lanka and Australia 2-2 times, he has returned to the pavilion without opening an account.
Coming into the fight, Duane Olivier fired batsmen Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane in back-to-back deliveries, leaving India without Virat Kohli until lunch on the first day of the second cricket test against South Africa here on Monday. I got in trouble for the loss of three lots. in the race. Olivier, who had given up hope of playing for England, came out to play the first Test for South Africa after three years and caught Rahane (00) on the next ball slip after firing Pujara (three runs on 33 balls) in a bouncing ball.

Acting captain Lokesh Rahul (19 runs on 84 balls) and Hanuma Vihari (04) were on the fold, leading the Indian Test team for the first time at lunch. Rahul won the toss and decided to hit first. Olivier shared the new ball with Kagiso Rabada. Mayank Agarwal (26) looked in good shape in the first hour when he hit five fours. However, he was caught by goalkeeper Kyle Verne in an attempt to scare off Marco Jensen’s offside delivery.
There was a credible appeal for a catch and leg earlier against Rahul, but debut referee Alahudin Palekar impressed and delivered brilliant decisions. India did not get off to a good start to the match when regular patron Virat Kohli was excluded from the match due to an upper back strain. Rahul decided to hit first in difficult conditions and, together with Agarwal, prevented the host’s bowlers from succeeding in the first hour.
As long as these two were in the fold, the starting pair, like Centurion, looked pretty good. Pujara was once again struggling to score runs. He looked uncomfortable against the bouncing balls and eventually Olivier fired him in a similar delivery. Rahane tried to manipulate the first ball off Olivier’s stump and had to bear the brunt of it returning to the pavilion. Keegan Pietersen took advantage of his easy catch on the slips.
