5. Kagiso Rabada
Kagiso Rabada joined an exclusive club when he successfully managed to take a hat-trick on his ODI debut making him only the second player in ODI history and the fifth across both the shorter and longer formats to make this achievement. He became the third South African to achieve this feat after Charl Langeveldt against the West and JP Duminy against Sri Lanka as well as the fourth youngest bowler to take a hat-trick in ODIs.
Incredibly, this was also the second time when three of Bangladesh's top four batsmen have been dismissed for a duck. The selectors had taken a risk with the 20-year-old in place of the experienced Morne Morkel and he reaffirmed their faith as he sent Tamim Iqbal back to the stadium by removing his off stump. Farhaan Behardien took a catch at mid-wicket to get rid of Litton Das and the next ball saw Mahmudullah declared lbw.
Rabada ended the match with figures of 6-16 which became the new record for South Africa beating Makhaya Ntini's 6/22 against Australia.
