IND vs SA: England won. The flag of victory was waved in New Zealand. Australian pride was also shattered. But, what is the reason for Team India’s failure on South African soil for the last 31 years? Even captains like Ganguly, Dhoni and Virat Kohli could not win Team India Test series in South Africa? This is the question that Team India fans want an answer from Rohit Sharma. Under the captaincy of Rohit, Team India will once again face South Africa at home. The two-Test series will begin at Centurion from Tuesday. The question is whether Team India can create history this time. The answer to the question will be known after the end of the test series. But first let us know why team India failed in South Africa..
The first cause of failure in South Africa..
South African pitches are different from all regions. Not only does it have more bounce than any other pitch in the world. Here the ball also swings and seams. That means the ball moves in the air. Even after falling on the wicket. Team India batsmen are not used to such pitches. As a result, South Africa often fails.
The second reason for failure in South Africa..
Relying on only one batsman was the main reason for Team India’s defeat. Virat Kohli is the only Indian batsman to average more than 50 runs on South African soil. Except him, no other batsman averaged below 40. That means, there is something wrong with the technique of other batsmen of Team India. Because of that they are unable to run in South Africa.
The third reason for failure in South Africa..
Team India has reached South Africa tour. But, due to the difficulties here, its preparation was not completed. After reaching South Africa, Team India played only one intra-squad match there. No attempt was made to adapt to the conditions through warm-up matches. The same has been seen in previous years as well. As a result, the team never won a Test series.
The fourth reason for failure in South Africa..
There is no doubt that the Indian bowlers will always excel in South Africa. But, the South African bowlers enjoy a distinct advantage over their pitches. That’s their height. Yes, South African bowlers are slightly taller than Indian bowlers. Because of this they get extra bounce on their pitches. This is the main reason for South Africa’s good record at home.
5th reason for failure in South Africa
South African batsmen know their home pitches well. They learned the art of cricket on these pitches. They have been playing domestic cricket there for a long time. So, the opposition bowlers can play better. But, this time Team India has good bowlers. They can definitely trouble the South African batsmen.
