Bavuma set to extend Test captaincy record

Temba Bavuma is set to extend one of Test cricket's most remarkable records when he captains South Africa in the first of two Tests against Bangladesh at the Wanderers Stadium on Sunday.

With 13 wins in his first 15 Tests as captain, Bavuma has had more success than anyone in the history of the game at an equivalent stage of their captaincy.

Only Lindsay Hassett of Australia can match Bavuma's record. They both had 13 wins, one draw and one loss in their first 15 matches in charge.�"AFP
