‘No Excuses’: Head Coach Rob Walter Reflects On South Africa’s 3-1 Defeat To India

By IANS News November 16, 2024 • 10:56 AM View: 308

T20 World Cup: South Africa's white-ball coach, Rob Walter, refused to make excuses for his team’s 3-1 T20I series defeat to India but highlighted the ongoing "balancing act" of fielding competitive XIs while expanding the player pool.

Speaking after South Africa's crushing 135-run loss in the fourth T20I at the Wanderers, Walter took responsibility for the team's performance but also defended the long-term strategy of exposing younger players to top-level cricket.
