India Showed Proteas Exactly How To Play On Sporting Wicket: Dale Steyn

By IANS News December 10, 2025 • 10:54 AM View: 495

Former South Africa: Former South Africa bowler Dale Steyn broke down India’s clinical outing against the Proteas and analysed the two sides’ performances in depth, stating that the hosts showed the visitors ‘how to play on a sporting wicket.’

The Men in Blue signalled serious intent ahead of the 2026 T20 World Cup with a commanding performance in the opening T20I of the five-match series against the Proteas.

South Africa, playing in conditions that typically favour their strengths, faltered early with the bat, something Steyn found both surprising and disappointing.
