Keshav Maharaj outfoxes counterpart Faf du Plessis with pearler as DSG claim hat-trick of wins in SA20 | WATCH

India TV News  

Durban's Super Giants skipper Keshav Maharaj produced one of the finest deliveries of the season to leave Joburg Super Kings captain Faf du Plessis gobsmacked on Monday at the Kingsmead in Durban. Highly underrated despite his remarkable skill, Maharaj, delivered an absolute head-turner to Faf in the seventh game of the ongoing SA20 2024 to yet again display his class as a slow left-arm orthodox spinner and arguably the best in South African cricketing circles at the moment. His stand-out bowling performance alongside his tactical nous helped Durban's Super Giants to register a hat-trick of wins as they successfully defended 145 on the board. A 37-run win helped DSG to earn a bonus point and they now sit comfortably atop the points table with a total of 13 points after three games.
