SA vs IND: Dean Elgar Led 'Phenomenally Well' With The Bat, Praises Vernon Philander

By IANS News January 08, 2022 • 18:17 PM View: 1082

Former South Africa all-rounder Vernon Philander showered praise on captain Dean Elgar, saying the way he led with the bat was 'phenomenal'. He added that South Africa's intent and urge to attack more in the second innings surprised India's bowling attack.

Chasing 240 on a rain-hit day four, Elgar carried his bat through and remained rock-solid to be unbeaten at 96 and help South Africa win the second Test at the Wanderers by seven wickets.
