Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma
The first match of the two-match Test series between India and South Africa was played in Centurion. In this match, Team India had to face defeat at the hands of South Africa. South Africa won the match by an innings and 32 runs. Due to the defeat against South Africa, Team India is 0-1 behind in this series. At the same time, the Indian team has also faced loss in the points table of WTC. After the defeat in the first match of the series, one dream of the Indian team now remains unfulfilled. Even captains like Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma could not fulfill this dream of India.
Years of wait continue for Team India
The Indian team has been playing Test series against South Africa since 1992. The Indian team is touring South Africa for the 9th Test series in the almost 30-year-old Test history between the two countries. During this period, Team India has never defeated South Africa in a Test series at their home till date. This time too this dream of the Indian team remained unfulfilled. This test series is to be played in two matches between the two teams. Where Team India has lost the first match. Even if we win the second match of the series, we will still not be able to win the series. In such a situation, their dream of winning the series against South Africa at home could not be fulfilled this time too.
MS Dhoni has done wonders
Team India may not have won the Test series in South Africa yet, but Team India has drawn the Test series in South Africa. Under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, Team India had drawn the Test series played in 2010/11. Before this and till now no other captain has been able to achieve this position. Rohit Sharma has a chance to equal this record of MS Dhoni. For this, Team India will have to win the next match of the series.
