Hook
Newlands, Cape Town. Third Test, Day One, First Session. Pat Cummins pitched a short ball to Aiden Markram — the kind that grazes the edge of fear in a batsman's mind as it climbs over the bat. Markram attempted a pull shot, but the ball dropped safely past his shoulder. A loose chance — not out, but a whisper that touched both players’ souls.
