Kagiso Rabada has taken one wicket so far in this innings at the MCG
Speaking of the video, the incident took place during the 82nd over of Australia’s innings. Travis Head and Cameron Green were batting. After the fourth ball of that over, Kagiso Rabada was seen doing some stretching at the boundary rope. It seemed like the South African pacer was loosening himself to get ready for bowling again.
But, the crowd behind him found it funny and started to imitate him. However, Rabada understood that and did not stop as he also enjoyed entertaining the crowd at the MCG. Speaking of the match, Australia won the toss and asked South Africa to bat first. They got bundled out for just 189 runs as it was another batting collapse from them. For them, Kyle Verreynne scored 52 runs off 99 balls, including three fours.
Along with him, Marco Jansen scored 59 runs off 136 balls, including 10 fours. For the Aussies, Cameron Green took five wickets for 27 runs in 10.4 overs. In reply, Australia have scored 386 runs for three wickets at the end of day two. Kagiso Rabada has taken only one wicket so far in this innings by conceding 94 runs in 18 overs.
