Keshav Maharaj - Even-Steven's in Rawalpindi
Loading player...
The honours were shared at stumps on day one of the second Test between Pakistan and South Africa in Rawalpindi, on a day that should have panned out far more favourably for the reigning world champions.
Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first, and at the close of play were on 259/5. Luck was certainly on their side following several dropped catches, missed stumpings, and even a delivery by Kagiso Rabada that hit the stumps without dislodging the bails.
Following the day’s play, Keshav Maharaj said dropped catches are part of the game but praised the team for bouncing back later and holding onto their chances.
