Kagiso Rabada and Keshav Maharaj were the stars for South Africa with the ball. Both Rabada and Maharaj claimed three wickets each in the first innings respectively. Rabada was in supreme touch in the second innings as he bagged a six-for and decimated Bangladesh's batting order.

Cricket South Africa (CSA) has given a go-ahead for the two-match Test series in Bangladesh despite the political unrest in the country, which forced the Women's T20 World Cup to move out. South Africa have named a spin-heavy squad for the two matches in Mirpur and Chattogram.

Keshav Maharaj and Kagiso Rabada by sharing seven wickets between them kept the slightest hopes of a South Africa win alive against the West Indies despite the rain washing out more than four sessions in the first Test in Port of Spain. South Africa have a 154-run lead going into the final day.

Keshav Maharaj was associated with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) unofficially before Rajasthan Royals (RR) roped him in as the replacement for their injured seamer Prasidh Krishna. Royals have brought Keshav on board at his base price of 50 lakhs.

Keshav Maharaj led Durban's Super Giants (DSG) to the final of the second season of SA20. He finished the tournament as the leading wicket-taker for the side and the fifth-leading of the tournament.

Rajasthan Royals signed the experienced South African spinner Keshav Maharaj for a base price of INR 50 lakh as an injury replacement for the pacer Prasidh Krishna and Kolkata Knight Riders signed the rising Afghanistan spinner Allah Ghazanfar.

Australian leg-spinner Adam Zampa became the latest cricketer to pull out from IPL 2024 citing personal reasons. Although it won't be a huge blow to the Rajasthan Royals, who have the best spin attack of all 10 teams, Zampa was a world-class backup for slow surfaces nonetheless.

Keshav Maharaj met with disappointment after his side Durban's Super Giants lost the summit clash of the SA20 2024 edition to Aiden Markram's Sunrisers Eastern Cape while playing at Newlands in Cape Town.

The second edition of SA20 started on a sour note with the opening game between Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Joburg Super Kings getting abandoned due to rain. The fans will now be hoping for the rain to stay away in the second game between Durban Super Giants and MI Cape Town.

Virat Kohli was quite vocal on the field on the first day of the second Test between India and South Africa. Whether it was telling Siraj what to bowl or welcoming Keshav Maharaj when that 'Ram Siya Ram' song played in the backdrop, Kohli was in some mood given India were on top in Cape Town.

A popular Bollywood song 'Ram Siya Ram' which is also a devotional track has become a flavour in public places since it is from a film. Now, interestingly, it has become a Keshav Maharaj song in stadiums across South Africa and Indian captain KL Rahul couldn't hold himself back from pointing it out.

Keshav Maharaj has already picked up 14 wickets in the nine games that he has played in the ongoing 50-over extravaganza at an average of 24.71 and also has an impressive economy rate of 4.37. He will be one of the important components of South Africa's arsenal in the second semifinal.

The second ODI of the three-match series is scheduled to be played on the 9th of October in Ranchi and the final ODI of the series will be played in New Delhi on October 11.

The left-arm spinner scripted history when he picked a hat-trick in South Africa's 158-run victory over the West Indies in the second Test.

The only previous South African to take a hat trick in tests was Geoff Griffin against England at Lord's in 1960.

Maharaj has not been among the frontrunners for the position but he led the Dolphins to the domestic One Day title. The Dolphins were awarded the title by Cricket South Africa after the season had to be curtailed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Former South Africa captain Faf du Plessis has been rested for the three-match ODI series against Australia but Keshav Maharaj was included for the first time since 2018.

Keshav Maharaj has been ruled out of the third and final Test match against India owing to a shoulder injury that he incurred during the second Test in Pune

Maharaj talked about the planning he had done with the support staff on how to bat against the Indian bowlers.

After going for 318 runs in the first Test (3/189 and 2/129), Maharaj has again been taken to cleaners in the second Test as he conceded 190 runs in India's first innings total of 601 for five.
