It Was A Bit Of A Hammering...inexperience Is Hurting Us, Says South Africa's Dean Elgar After Another Embarrassing Defeat

By IANS News December 29, 2022 • 17:49 PM View: 587

South Africa captain Dean Elgar has termed his team's innings and 182 runs debacle against Australia in the second Test here on Thursday as a "hammering" and his inexperienced squad has learnt its lessons the hard way.

South Africa were bowled out for 189 in the first innings and did not fare much better as they could manage only 204 runs in their second innings in response to Australia's first innings score of 575/8 declared, losing the match on the fourth morning here at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
