Quotes
Hashim Amla (Man of the match): Yeah very much delighted though, never expected this to end quickly till that spell from Steyn. We got to a shaky start but the partnership between me and ABD got us back in the game. You don't often see him not getting wickets, he simply showed his class(talking about Dale Steyn). It was a tough situation and thankfully we got the partnership going, even Roach got injured which helped a little. ABD is a wonderful fielder and the catch he took today was fantastic. He is brilliant anywhere in the field. It was an eventful test, we have few days to recover.
Denesh Ramdin :Yeah we didn't bowled well in the right areas after struck after early breakthroughs with the new ball, but credit to Amla and ABD, they played exceptionally well and took the game away from us. We will look to put a good fight by showing some more character. We will surely have a word on it, whether Roach stays here or goes back home. Partnership between Amla and ABD was vital in the game. We simply didn't have any good partnership, we needed few century stand but we simply couldn't do so.
