The Proteas have pulled off a series win in One Day Internationals against India and credit is deserved for that. But let’s get a couple of things straight: This was a seriously depleted Indian outfit, no Tendulkar, no Sehwag, for example; most importantly, this is not the sub continent, the nature of the game changes dramatically on the pitches of India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. And then there’s the spin factor and the likes of Harbhajan and Murali waiting to play on their favourite surfaces.
Can they do it, and break the winless streak in major competitions, while throwing off the “Chokers” mantle? Vote in our poll and let us know your thoughts.
