Twitter reacts to Lungi Ngidi defending seven runs in last over to gift South Africa one-run win
In the first T20I, Lungi Ngidi nullified England's chase with a death-bowling spell off 3 for 10 in two overs, after an opening spell of 0 for 20 to land the team a victory. The impressive part, however, was that he defended seven runs in the last over when it an England win was almost certain.
Thriller!

Lungi Ngidi is having immense control over his dipping slower ones. He along with Bravo(though he has not been at his best) can make CSK a deadly team with MS's tactics, CSK will be the team to beat. If Lungi stays injury free. #IPL2020
