It Was In Top 3 Influencing Innings I Have Played For South Africa, Feels Elgar About His 96*
South Africa skipper Dean Elgar reckons his unbeaten 96 in spearheading the chase of 240 against India in the second Test stands in the top three influencing innings he has ever played for the team. He also praised his team for pushing through a lot in the last four days in order to square the three-match series 1-1.
"It has been a fair innings, isn't it I guess. Personally, it is right up there. It's contributed in a big way on the win and speaks a lot more than anything when it comes to personal game or accolades. I am extremely glad that as a captain, I could be to end and lead us over the line, which was a kind of do-or-die match for us. I would say, it was right up there, maybe in the top three influencing innings I have played for the Proteas," said Elgar while replying to a query from IANS in the virtual press conference.
