    Cricket In India Isn't Just Playing Against XI; You Face A Whole Nation: Dale Styen

    Former South Africa: Former South Africa fast bowler Dale Steyn praised the team's historic 2-0 Test series victory in India, calling it a landmark achievement that highlighted their collective efforts.

    At the Barsapara Cricket Stadium on Wednesday, South Africa crushed India by 408 runs in the second Test to complete a 2-0 series sweep. Simon Harmer returned with figures of 6-37 to bowl India out for just 140 in pursuit of an improbable 549, as South Africa secured their first Test series win in India in 25 years, the previous victory coming under Hansie Cronje’s captaincy in 2000.

    "It’s a monumental achievement, especially considering it’s taken South Africa 25 years to win a Test series in India. Having toured here myself, I know how challenging it is. It’s a place that pushes you out of your comfort zone. Cricket in India isn't just about competing against eleven players; it’s facing an entire cricket-mad nation, which tests everything from travel to conditions for any visiting team," Steyn said on JioStar.
