Written by Vipin Darwade

Former India opener And Chief selector Kris Srikkanth has lauded the efforts of the Indian team, who has won the ODI series in South Africa. He also mentioned that the India team has stamped their authority in the limited-overs format with the series win, and are on right track for the 2019 World Cup.

“Winning a bilateral series for the first time in South Africa is no easy feat. India is only the second team (Australia, twice) to beat the African nation in a five-match ODI series in their own den. This stat alone should put things in perspective. They are not an easy team to beat at home and full credit to the Indian team for coming back strongly after that rare defeat at the Wanderers,” he wrote.

“A good last game and success in the T20 series to follow, will rightly perch the Indian team right at the top in terms of confidence for the tougher assignments in future and the World Cup in particular. This result has proved beyond doubt that India has all the ammunition to be successful in all conditions in this format. I am sure this is the start of many good things to come for this confident, young and fit Indian side” he added.

Virat Kohli side has become the first Indian outfit to win a bilateral series in South Africa.
