In the 2nd Test match between South Africa and Bangladesh at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram, the visitors are all over The Tigers as Proteas, batting first, put 307/2 on the board after stumps on day 1.

Tony de Zorzi and Tristan Stubbs stole the limelight as they stitched a 201-run stand for the 2nd wicket to put South Africa in the driver's seat. Further, with their partnership, they went past Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill to stitch the second-best partnership for the second wicket in the ongoing WTC cycle. 

Stubbs and Zorzi Shines Against Bangladesh

Stubbs slammed his maiden Test century, while Zorzi is unbeaten on 141 (211), which featured ten fours and three sixes. Further, Zorzi hogged the headlines for his celebration after reaching his maiden Test hundred. 

Notably, Tony copied Chelsea's golden boy Cole Palmer's celebration after reaching his ton. In the 55th over, Tony swept a Mehidy Hasan delivery for a boundary, and following that, he broke into Palmer's celebration by rubbing his biceps, which the Chelsea star does after scoring a goal. 


Who is Cole Palmer?

The 23-year-old star player plays for Chelsea and has emerged as their best player recently. Palmer started his professional career in 2020 for Manchester City and then moved to Chelsea, where he made an immediate impact on the club's success. 

Also, he has topped the charts for their leading goal scorer and also tops the assist chart. 

Talking about South Africa, a win is necessary for the Proteas as they are eyeing a spot in the WTC finals. Further, since India lost two matches against New Zealand.
