The on-field umpire for the second Test, Marais Erasmus, was put under tons of pressure by the Indian team and the umpire cheekily quipped that the players were giving him a ‘heart attack’ with every passing over.
There was one such sequence where Thakur to Aiden Markram where Erasmus was under serious pressure. Thakur appealed for two LBWs and a caught behind before the fourth delivery ended up providing a breakthrough. Soon after, even Dean Elgar was troubled by the same bowler.
