In Elgar’s Words: “My Record Has Been Pretty Good

As the second Test between India and South Africa unfolded with a flurry of 23 wickets on the chaotic first day, South African skipper Dean Elgar refrained from deeming the pitch as poor, emphasizing the challenges it presented instead. The day concluded with South Africa at 62/3, trailing by 36 runs, with Aiden Markram (36*) and David Bedingham (7*) standing firm.

Elgar’s Resilience: “I Cannot Say the Pitch Is Bad

In his final Test, Elgar remained undeterred despite modest scores of 4 and 12. Refusing to criticize the pitch, he acknowledged its challenging nature, emphasizing the need for batters to apply themselves mentally and be disciplined. Elgar, known for his success on diverse wickets, stressed the delicate balance between bat and ball.

The Pitch Dynamics: Varied Bounce and Steep Challenges

Elgar shed light on the unpredictable bounce at different ends of the pitch. When Mohammed Siraj wreaked havoc with a six-wicket haul at the Wynberg End, deliveries at the Calvin Grove End, exploited by Lungi Ngidi for three wickets in an over, displayed a different character. Elgar admitted confusion about the varying bounce and noted the challenges faced by batters.

Unforeseen Challenges: Elgar’s Assessment of the Pitch

Despite having played 19 first-class matches at Newlands, Elgar admitted that the mottled appearance of the pitch differed from its usual even tone. He expressed confidence before the match, believing the surface would favor batting first. However, the unexpected nature of the pitch left Elgar surprised, stating he wouldn’t have chosen it had he known its true character.

India’s Precision and Batters’ Application: Elgar’s Analysis

Elgar credited India for putting the ball in the right areas and highlighted the importance of South African batters by showing more application. Drawing inspiration from Virat Kohli, Aiden Markram and Rohit Sharma, Elgar emphasized the need for calculated risks and solid application in challenging conditions.

As the match unfolded, South Africa’s first innings witnessed a collapse, with Mohammed Siraj’s fiery spell decimating their top and middle order. In response, India faced its own challenges, succumbing to a Lungi Ngidi three-wicket over. Elgar, in his final Test innings, managed 12 runs as South Africa ended the day at 62/3 in their second innings. The battle between bat and ball continues in this gripping encounter.

Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli is set to rejoin the national team in South Africa, gearing up for the inaugural Test match scheduled to kick off on December 26 in Centurion. A recent report from News18 sheds light on the reason behind Kohli’s temporary departure.

During his absence, Kohli was in London, a pre-planned trip that had been communicated well in advance to the team management. Contrary to speculation, the decision was not abrupt, as a senior BCCI official clarified:

“Look at the player in question, it’s Virat Kohli. He is very well planned when it comes to these things, and his London trip was communicated and planned well in advance.”

Officials further revealed that Kohli had engaged in multiple training sessions with the team before departing for London on December 15. After his return, he is expected to resume practice upon joining the team in Centurion. The absence of Kohli from the intra-squad practice matches was a strategic move, ensuring his optimal preparation for the upcoming Test series against South Africa.

South Africa’s head coach, Shukri Conrad, expressed confidence that India would face a formidable challenge despite its frontline pacers Kagiso Rabada and Lungi Ngidi returning to action. Both Rabada and Ngidi, having overcome minor setbacks, were seen in full swing during the training sessions.

Conrad acknowledged the importance of freshness in his pacers, stating,

“They will be fresh and firing. I am always a firm believer in freshness.”

Although Rabada and Ngidi may lack recent match practice, Conrad remains unfazed, expressing optimism about their readiness for the game.

As the ‘Boxing Day’ Test approaches, the South African coach anticipates having a full squad of 15 to choose from, emphasizing the potential impact of his lethal bowling duo in challenging India on the pacer-friendly Centurion track.

Renowned Indian cricket star Virat Kohli has urgently returned home due to a family emergency, throwing a curveball into preparations just days before the commencement of the first Test against South Africa. Sources from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have confirmed that the iconic batsman is expected to rejoin the squad in time for the opening Test scheduled for December 26 in Centurion.

Earlier, the BCCI had released wicket-keeper batsman Ishan Kishan from the Test series due to personal reasons, with KS Bharat announced as his replacement for the upcoming two-match series.

Adding to the team’s challenges, India’s opening batsman Ruturaj Gaikwad will be sidelined for the two-Test series due to a finger fracture sustained while attempting a catch during the second ODI against South Africa. The BCCI is yet to announce a replacement for the young batter.

The upcoming Test series marks the return of key players including Kohli, skipper Rohit Sharma, pacer Jasprit Bumrah, and other members of India’s ODI World Cup squad. Since the heart-wrenching loss against Australia in the World Cup final, Kohli, Rohit, and other senior members of the Indian team have been on a cricket hiatus.

While the specific details of the ‘family emergency’ prompting Kohli’s early return remain undisclosed, there seems to be assurances from Kohli himself to the BCCI regarding his swift return before the Test series kicks off.

India’s squad for Tests

Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohd. Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah (VC), Prasidh Krishna, KS Bharat (wk).

This upcoming series holds promise with both teams utilizing opportunities to test players crucial for their T20I squads in the upcoming World Cup. India seems to boast a robust batting lineup, especially with Shubman Gill’s return, and their bowling unit has gained more experience since their series against Australia. While South Africa enjoys home advantage, our prediction leans towards India edging out a close contest to kickstart this series with a victory against South Africa in the 1st T20.

With a notable 17% of T20 games resulting in no conclusion at this venue, and a substantial 50% of matches being won by the team batting second, our prediction anticipates that both captains might opt to field first if they win the toss in this match. This choice aligns with the statistical advantage observed for teams chasing at this particular venue.

It’s unfortunate to understand that. Ishan Kishan did not get the first century of his career for a short time by ruling the Proteas bowlers with the bat from the beginning. On the other hand, Shreyas Iyer got the second century of his career. Together, the two gave a big partnership of 150 runs for the third wicket.
In that pair, India reached the port of victory by 7 wickets. South Africa won the toss and was elected to bat in the second ODI of the series in Ranchi. Reza Hendricks and Aiden Markram scored 2278 runs for 7 wickets. Markram top-scored with 79 runs.

In his 89-ball innings, he had 7 fours and 1 six. And Hendricks gave an innings of 74 runs in 76 balls with 9 fours and 1 six. David Miller scored 35*, Heinrich Klaasen 30, and Quinton de Kock scored 25 runs. Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj took three wickets for just 38 runs in 10 overs.

India’s opening pair was not big in the run chase. Like in the first match, Shikhar Dhawan, who failed even today, was dismissed for 13 runs. Another opener Shubman Gill fell to Kagiso Rabada for 28 off 26 balls. After this, Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer added 161 runs for the third wicket in 155 balls. Just 7 runs before the first century of his career, Ishan was caught in the boundary by Fortune. Frustrated by such a result of such a great inning of 4 boundaries and 7 sixes in 84 balls, Ishan sat on the pitch.

The opposing cricketers also consoled him at this time. Later, Shreyas Iyer shared an unbroken 73* off 69 balls with Sanju Samson (29*) to give India a seven-wicket victory. Shreyas remained unbeaten on 113* after picking up the second century of his career off 103 balls. His 111-ball innings had 15 fours. India reached the port of victory with 25 balls in hand. As a result, the three-match series came to a 1-1 draw.
