Playing with sharp instincts on the field can often lead to crucial dismissals. Kyle Verreynne and Tony de Zorzi showcased this during the Test match against Bangladesh at Chattogram, where their confident appeal for a catch was upheld on review, successfully dismissing Shadman Islam.

‌Powered by exceptional centuries from Tony de Zorzi, Tristan Stubbs, and Wiaan Mulder, the Proteas declared their innings at 577/6. The second day featured standout batting from Mulder and a solid anchoring performance by Senuran Muthusamy. Bangladesh began their innings with five bonus runs due to a penalty on Muthusamy for running on the pitch, though this had little impact as Kagiso Rabada dismissed Shadman Islam after a confident DRS appeal from Tony de Zorzi and Kyle Verreynne.



On the fifth ball of the opening over, Rabada bowled a length delivery swinging down the leg side. Bangladesh's opener attempted a flick but missed, and the ball sailed through to Proteas keeper Verreynne. Despite a loud appeal from Rabada and the short-leg fielder, umpire Joel Wilson denied the dismissal. However, Verreynne and de Zorzi were certain of an edge, urging Markram to go for the review. The replay revealed a clear spike as the ball passed the bat, leading Wilson to overturn his decision. Social media buzzed with praise for de Zorzi and Verreynne’s confident DRS call.

Numbers can often be misleading, painting a picture that hides the real story behind the data. As the Bangladesh scoreboard read 10/0 with just one ball being bowled in the second innings of the second Test, a similar confusion was created, before the laws of cricket dehazed the picture.
