2nd Test: South Africa Will Look To Be Ruthless And Take On Opportunities, Says Bavuma
South Africa defeated India by 30 runs in a low‑scoring contest at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, to take a 1‑0 lead in the two‑match series and extend their impressive run since winning the World Test Championship in June. The result also marked the Proteas’ first Test victory in India in 15 years.
Having recently drawn 1‑1 in Pakistan, Bavuma & Co. now have the chance to script history by securing a first Test series triumph on Indian soil since Hansie Cronje’s team achieved the feat in 2000.
