Hashim Amla Backs South Africa’s Preparation Ahead Of India Test Opener, Praises Shubman Gill’s Leadership
Speaking here ahead of the SA20 season launch, Amla said the team’s recent exposure in Pakistan and its methodical build-up will help them adapt quickly to subcontinental conditions.
“It’s the preparation that matters,” Amla said. “If I look at the South African team, as I mentioned earlier, they had just come from a Test series in Pakistan. For a big series like India, the best preparation is playing Test matches in the subcontinent against quality spinners and seamers. Many South African players were not involved in the one-day format, so credit goes to the think tank of the South African team for keeping the Test players in Test mode heading into a big series in India.”
