IND vs SA 1st Test: Mohammed Siraj broke the stumps as he took the wicket of Simon Harmer on the third day of the series opener in Kolkata on Sunday. He had bowled a brilliant delivery to Harmer as the off-stump broke in half owing to the speed of the star fast bowler.

He had bowled a good, lengthy delivery as Harmer tried to leave it, and it was a bad decision. The top of the off stump broke as Harmer misjudged the shot. The Protea batter left the ball, which was supposed to hit the stumps, as the ball went past the front pad and went towards the off-stump.
