[Watch] Temba Bavuma unluckily gets run out after being hit on body by a quick delivery from Sean Abbott in SA vs AUS ODI

Temba Bavuma lost his wicket in an unlucky fashion during the fifth ODI of the series between South Africa and Australia today (September 17). A quick delivery from Sean Abbott hit the Proteas skipper hard on his body.

Bavuma tried to move away from the pitch but noticed his partner Quinton de Kock taking a run. The South African skipper tried to complete the run at the non-striker's end. However, a direct hit from Marnus Labuschagne ensured that Bavuma was run out.

It was only the second ball that Temba Bavuma faced in the match. He lost his wicket for a duck because of the run out.
