Watch: KL Rahul's Stunning Direct Hit To Dismiss Temba Bavuma In 3rd ODI vs South Africa
With pride at stake, India made a brilliant start in the third ODI against South Africa in Cape Town on Sunday. The Proteas lead 2-0 in the three-match series and the visitors will be aiming to prevent a clean sweep. After winning the toss, stand-in captain KL Rahul elected to bowl and the hosts' top-order didn't fare well, with the likes of Janneman Malan, Temba Bavuma and Aiden Markram losing their wickets cheaply. Skipper Bavuma was dismissed by a stunning direct hit by Rahul and fans took to social media to hail the 29-year-old's effort. Receiving a full delivery from Chahar in the seventh over, Bavuma sent it to the right of mid-off and left for a single. But instead of running in a straight line, he angled his run to his left after crossing the bowler and Rahul attacked the ball well, throwing an accurate direct hit at the bowler's end.
