Riding on the shoulder of South African left spinner Keshav Maharaj bowling thrashed the Srilankan batting line-up.
Twitterati trolled the Srilankan Squad and made funny comments. Complete Srilankan team thrashed by South African left arm spinner.
Keshav Maharaj scalped the 9 wickets against Srilanka. On saturday Srilanka hardly managed to score 338 runs with all wickets down.On the other South African pacer Kagisko Rabada has taken only one wicket.
If Maharaj managed to scalped last wicket then he will be the third bowler who scalped 10 wickets in innings.
Disaster for the Proteas in the sub continent. Sri Lanka bowlers in total control #SLvSA

Earlier, Indian spinner Anil Kumble and England's Jim Laker had already achieved the milestone of scalping 10 wickets in an innings.
Scalping 9 wickets in an innings happens 16 times in cricket history.

Sri Lanka shouldn't have posted a score in excess of 250! Pitch may be turning but that's no excuse, Proteas should be batting better. #SLvSA
