India vs South Africa, 2nd Test - "Miyan Magic": Internet Erupts As Mohammed Siraj Makes SA Shiver In Cape Town Test

As the Proteas won the toss and opted to bat, Siraj proved to be the wrecker in chief for India, who had lost the first Test by an innings and 32 runs in Centurion last week. Siraj dismissed Aiden Markram (2), Dean Elgar (4) and Tony de Zorzi (2), respectively in his first spell.
