Read on the application

South African team captain Temba Bavuma fought alone in the first ODI match against Australia. Temba Bavuma not only scored his fifth ODI century but also scored more runs than the entire team and returned unbeaten. On one hand the whole team was faltering, on the other hand the captain Temba Bavuma, who came to open, batted with patience and scored a century.

In this match, Australian team captain Mitchell Marsh won the toss and decided to bowl first. The captain’s decision proved correct and the entire South African team was bundled out for 222 runs. However, the South African captain stood firm till the 49th over and saw all the batsmen at the other end dismissed. Temba Bavuma played an innings of 114 runs in this match.

Shoaib Akhtar’s big claim – said why Team India does not have a settled playing eleven?

Temba Bavuma scored an unbeaten 114 off 142 balls with 14 fours and a six, which was more than half of the entire innings. This pitch was not suitable for batting. This was the reason why he played the innings with patience and managed to lead the team to a respectable score. This is Temba Bavuma’s third century in the last 6 ODIs. This also includes an innings of 90 runs.
