SA v IND: From the captain of South Africa to the coach, everyone is now criticizing the Cape Town pitch.
The second Test match is being played between South Africa and India at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town. A total of 23 wickets fell in the first day’s play played yesterday. South Africa and India were all out once each. After this, the African team, which came to bat in the second innings, lost three wickets there too. After the first day’s play, everyone is now talking about the Cape Town pitch. After the match, South African captain Dean Elgar himself talked about this pitch. “This (pitch) generally plays a little slow and as a batsman you can set up and play a good innings,” Elgar said during an interview with Star Sports after the end of the day’s play. But as the session progressed, the pitch got faster.” Meanwhile, South Africa’s batting consultant Ashwell Prince spoke openly about this pitch. Ashwell Prince understands the Cape Town pitch very well and, he too was stunned to see that pitch. He had never seen such bounce and speed on this pitch before. Apart from this, he also talked about the seam movement he was getting from the pitch. Dean Elgar also supported Prince’s comment and he also talked about the bounce being provided by this pitch. They said that, “The bowlers were getting a lot of bounce from the Vinberg End, while the ball bowled from the Kelvin Grove End was coming very fast. This variation in bounce made it even more difficult for the batsmen to score runs here.”

The 39-year-old player further talked about Virat Kohli’s captaincy skills and his contribution to the team. Team India now needs two-three captains- Irfan Pathan Speaking on Star Sports, Irfan Pathan said, “A lot of changes are likely to happen in 2024.

Under the leadership of Virat Kohli, he reached the number 1 ranking in Test cricket. His fitness was excellent. He performed well in every match and made the team perform brilliantly in every match. Rohit Sharma also made the team perform amazingly. Saw in the World Cup and he won the Asia Cup but who after Rohit Sharma?” Irfan further said that this year India will also have to focus on building a good fast bowling unit. Cricketer-turned-commentator Pathan said India do not have a potential backup in the ongoing Test series, and pointed out how Mohammed Shami’s absence in the opening match affected Team India.

The former England captain immediately picked India’s Shubman Gill and New Zealand’s Rachin Ravindra and explained why these two players can rule the cricket world in the future. However, Nasir Hussain also believes that Gill would have learned a lot by batting with Indian captain Rohit Sharma, calling the young player a super talent and a big star for the future of Team India. Nasir Hussain praised Shubman Gill fiercely In the video shared by ICC, Nasir Hussain said, “I am going with Shubman Gill. I think three-quarters, nine-tenths of them in 2023 were very good. Having players like Rohit Sharma at the other end, he must have learned a lot. Maybe, in the end, that illness bothered him a bit and his form deteriorated. He is a super talent and he is going to be the next sensation for India in the coming years. Hopefully 2024 will be good for him.” Furthermore, Hussain lauded the performance of youngster Rachin Ravindra, who impressed everyone with his performances in the ODI World Cup 2023 and finished the tournament as one of the leading run-scorers of the competition. Hussain expressed hope that Ravindra will continue his excellent performance in future also. Hussain said, “And the man who lit up the World Cup was Rachin Ravindra. Before going to the World Cup, I saw him for a while in England. He came in lower down the order at Lord’s and created a stir all around. I thought, he can play. When he was given a chance in the top order, he performed brilliantly there. Hopefully, he will continue his form.” Also read: What is Hardik Pandya proving by posting the video with his son?
