Watch: Animated Reaction of Rohit Sharma After Taking Aiden Markram's Catch in the Second Test vs South Africa
during the Indian cricket team's second and final Test match against South Africa at Newlands, Capetown Emotions were heavily invested. The guests suffered an innings-and-32-run drubbing in the first Test match in Centurion, and this was their only chance to make up for it with a series-leveling win. Team India came with added energy and went on to win the game by seven wickets, too, within two days. What the win meant for the side was clearly visible when India skipper Rohit Sharma vented out his frustration with an animated celebration after taking the catch of Aiden Markram. The wicket more or less made sure that India had to chase a paltry total.
Rohit took Markram’s catch at long-off and then banged the ball on the surface with aggression.

During the second innings of South Africa's game, Markram was Proteas' only hope. He was on 71 when he edged a drive off Jasprit Bumrah, but wicketkeeper KL Rahul could not hold a catch above his head.
