The final match of the two Test match series between India and South Africa will be played in Cape Town. In fact, there was a strange scene on the first day of the Cape Town Test. In fact, the last 6 batsmen of the Indian team couldn't even score a run. For the first time in the almost 150-year history of Test cricket, this happened when six batsmen between them failed to add even one run. South Africa also set the record of taking six wickets without conceding any runs.
An exactly similar scene occurred about 58 years ago. The Test between Pakistan and New Zealand was played in Rawalpindi. At one point in this Test New Zealand's score was 58 runs for 3 wickets until 59 runs, 9 batsmen, went into the pavilion. In this way, 6 batsmen could score only 1 run. However, against South Africa in 2012, five New Zealand batsmen failed to score even a run. New Zealand's score was 133 runs for 2 wickets, but after that it was 7 wickets for 133 runs.
However, if we talk about the India-South Africa Test, the host team's score by the end of the first day's play is 62 runs for 3 wickets. Currently, the Indian team is ahead by 36 runs based on the first innings. South Africa had scored just 55 runs in the first innings. In response, the Indian team scored 153 runs. In this way, the Indian team led by Rohit Sharma gained a lead of 98 runs. Apart from Kagiso Rabada, Nandre Berger and Lungi Ngidi each won three times for South Africa. For India, Mohammad Siraj took six wickets in South Africa's first innings.
