A 20-year old rookie took 13 wickets and a 33-year old scored a century on debut. The 4th Test of the South Africa vs England series proved to be much more than a dead rubber and the twitteratis were buzzing all this while. Here are the best tweets from across the 5 days in Centurion :

What a sweet and heartwarming moment, when @KagisoRabada25 ran up to his father, and handed him the stump. A champ is born. #SAvsENG

#SAvsENG @KagisoRabada25 is now the youngest South African to take 10 wickets in a test match. Brilliant.

Really feeble effort from Eng this time round.
Let's not forget this isn't against Steyn or Philander.
Grateful for a 2-1 though.#SAvsENG— Mark Bellamy (@7markbellamy) January 26, 2016

#SAvsENG One of the biggest servings of humble pie I can remember for the SA selectors. #StephenCook should've been doing this years ago.

AB is so prolific that sometimes we forget that he's human too. He's dismissed for none #SAvsENG

Probably cursing him, but why does it take a lost series to realise there is a proper opener in the country. #StephenCook #SAvsENG
