In pain, the captain won half the match standing on the pitch, Markram scored a century after …

WTC Final 2025: Who is the world champion of Test cricket… This fight between South Africa and Australia will end today. By the time the game stopped on the third day of the match, South Africa’s upper hand was heavy. But not only his batting behind the African performance, Captain Temba Bawuma also had amazing courage. There was a time when the game was on par and the biomas were injured. Due to hamstring, it became difficult for him to run. Physio came. Some exercises were done and some medicines were also given, but the pain of the biuma did not reduce. The South African captain had the option of retired hurt at that time. But this player, rich in courage, knew that returning to the pavilion would mean the return of Australia… The captain who did not lose a single match in his entire career, how would he leave the field on such an occasion. Temba Bawuma adamant on the pitch despite the pain and forced the Kangaroos to lurk.

Coach Ashwell Prince later said, ‘Temba is a very strong player. We thought whether they should be called out. But he decided that he would play. Temba Bawuma scored an unbeaten 65 off 121 balls, ignoring the pain. His innings was not only for runs, but his patience was a victory. He ran while lagging for every run and brought his team closer to the target despite the pain.
