Watch: At Wanderers Stadium, Avesh Khan Bamboozles Aiden Markram With A Peach
In amazing display Avesh Khan emerged as yet another game-changer during the ongoing India tour of South Africa in the 1st ODI. Avesh Khan's heroics unfolded in a dramatic sequence, with the pacer claiming two wickets in two balls, leaving the Proteas in disarray.
The first victim of Avesh Khan's masterclass was Aiden Markram, the South African captain, who fell prey to a well-directed delivery at the fourth-stump line. Attempting to stab at the hard-length delivery, Markram misjudged the bounce, resulting in an inside edge that crashed back onto the stumps. The Bull Ring witnessed scenes of jubilation as the Men in Blue roared, showcasing the dominance of the Indian pace attack.

The second wicket in the lethal two-in-two came in the form of Wiaan Mulder. Avesh Khan's delivery, full and straight at the off stump line, bamboozled Mulder, who played the wrong line and found himself beaten on the outside edge. The umpire's decision was confirmed through the review process, and Mulder trudged off the field in disbelief.
