Player of the Match
Keshav Maharaj | South Africa
Thought was a really good wicket. Little bit of nibble and fortunately our bowlers managed to utilise that. We know the English lads play extremely well in their conditions and so good to see the guys put their plans to fruition today.
I have looked at some of the best in the world and sort of managed to make minor changes and it has paid dividends. We are in a wonderful place but still we are in transition. Good to see the guys put their hands up in every single game we play.
