A two-match Test series is being played between Bangladesh and South Africa. South Africa started this series with a win. Now the second and last match of the series between the two teams is being played at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram. A strange incident has been seen in this match. Due to two mistakes of South Africa, Bangladesh scored 10 runs on the first ball of their innings, this incident surprised everyone.
10 runs were scored on 1 ball in the test
Shadman Islam and Mahmudul Hasan Joy started the innings for Bangladesh. Kagiso Rabada bowled the first over of the innings. Kagiso Rabada bowled a dot ball on the very first ball of his over, but his teammate Senuran Muthusamy made a big mistake while batting. He was seen running in the middle of the pitch, due to which the umpires gave 5 runs as a penalty to the Bangladesh team. In this way, Bangladesh's innings started with 5 runs.
But a big mistake was seen from Kagiso Rabada on the second ball itself. He bowled a no ball on the second ball of the over, not only this, 4 runs were also given as bye on this ball. In such a situation, the Bangladesh team was successful in scoring 5 runs on this ball as well, due to which 10 runs were added to its account on 1 ball. This incident is quite surprising in Test cricket because it is rarely seen when a team scores 10 runs on the first ball of the innings in a Test.
Bangladesh started their innings with 10 runs on the board with no batter hitting a ball. 😄
