The two-match Test series between India and South Africa ended in a 1-1 draw. In the first Test, India’s innings was defeated by 32 runs, but in the second match held in Cape Town recently, India won more than that. They won against the host team by seven wickets and leveled the series. Dean Elgar announced his retirement from international cricket with this series. He officially announced this before the series. Team India captain Rohit Sharma and star player Virat Kohli gave special gifts to Elgar who played the last test today. First, the hit man gave a jersey signed by the Indian team members to Elgar as a gift. Also after the match, Virat Kohli said all the best to Elgar. He also presented the signed jersey as a souvenir. Not to mention the range of Virat Kohli’s celebrations in general if a wicket falls. But Virat gave the best farewell to the South African captain when he came to bat for the last time in this match and went to Elgar’s dugout after the out. He asked the audience in the gallery to bow their hands to the South African captain. That’s why Elgar didn’t do any celebrations even after getting caught. Virat Kohli has won everyone’s hearts not only with his game but also with his behavior.
Elgar scored 185 runs in the first Test match at Centurion and caused India’s defeat. But he failed in his last Test match in Cape Town. This star batsman, who scored 4 runs in the first innings and was dismissed by Siraj’s bowling, scored 12 runs in the second innings and gave the wicket to Mukesh Kumar. Elgar scored 5146 runs at an average of 37.28 in 84 Tests for South Africa. It includes 13 centuries and 23 half-centuries. This star opener who played only 8 ODIs scored only 104 runs.
