Marco Jansen fired with bat and ball for South Africa A against India A in Bloemfontein on Wednesday.
Batting at No 8, the 21-year-old made an unbeaten 70 off 123 balls to help the hosts post 297 in their first innings.
He was well supported by Glenton Stuurman, who made a vital 27 while batting at No 11 before being freakishly run out when the ball ricocheted off the bowler’s foot on to the stumps.
SA A were all out for 297 as Glenton Stuurman was the last man out, after being run out at the non-striker's end.
A bit of a brain fade from Glenton as he watched hit Ishan Porel's foot and go into the stumps while not attempting to ground his back back in the crease.#SAAvINDA pic.twitter.com/LrLgOhaNhY

Jansen and Stuurman then each took two of the five India A wickets to fall on day two of the second match between the teams.
Absolute GEM of a delivery as Marco Jansen joins the wicket taking procession and gets rid of Baba Aparajith for a duck.
Fantastic line as it angles past the right-hander, but still tight enough that it forces him to play at it.
No shame in getting out to that.#SAAvINDA pic.twitter.com/C9pri4xtl5
