Dean Elgar ( SA Captain and Man of the Match): The basics of batting bowling and batting don't go away, we missed that in the first game. Saying that, it wasn't easy. Tough conditions we had to face as a batting unit. As a bowling unit, the Indians were on top at times. Massive respect to our bowling unit, they showed a lot of character. I would like to think the knocks I take make me extra motivated to perform. The bigger picture is for us to win. We struggled to get a stable batting line-up and we had to be very patient. Rabada has that attitude he wants to bowl and wants to contribute, you have to use it as a captain. It was awesome to see him fire. Team effort to get 20 wickets. I played a domestic game in Cape Town, not going to give away an info. 1-1, South Africa vs India, I don't think you could have written a better script.
