When: South Africa vs Bangladesh, 1st Test Potchefstroom, 2017
With a flat deck on offer, Mushfiqur Rahim's decision to bowl first after winning the toss attracted heavy scrutiny from all counters. The ludicrousness of the decision was further vindicated when the Proteas led by Dean Elgar stiched valuable partnerships to pile on the agony.Elgar compiled a 196 run opening stand with the debutant Aiden Markram (97), the latter falling short by three runs of his first hundred when a horrible mix up between he and Elgar accounted for him.
It wasn't the only ignominy that Elgar had to fave during the course of that Test match as he was foxed by a cutter from Mustafizur Rahman, entrusting him in two minds.A top edge ended Elgar's innings, making him the first South African to join the 199 club.
