Dean Elgar Slams "Unsafe" Gabba Pitch After First Test Loss

By AFP News December 18, 2022 • 17:21 PM View: 919

South African captain Dean Elgar criticised an "unsafe" Gabba wicket after his side lost the first Test to Australia inside two days in Brisbane on Sunday.

The Australians recorded a six-wicket win over the Proteas late Sunday after 19 wickets fell on the second day on a green pitch that offered plenty of bounce and movement to both teams' pace attacks.
