New Delhi: South Africa's classy left-handed batsman, JP Duminy, has full range of shots and is known to adjust himself as per the requirements of the game.

Duminy has been an ever-present in the Proteas' squad in all three formats – T20Is, ODIs and Tests – for a long time.

In the present series between Australia and South Africa, Duminy hit an impressive knock of 141 and was the visitor's top scorer as they came out victorious in the opening match.

During his journey to 141, Duimny accidently hit a shot that made commentators burst into laughter and opposition amused.

Duminy ducked hoping to escape the ball bowled by Josh Hazlewood but took his eyes off the ball. As he kept his bat up, the ball hit it and was deflected towards fine leg.
