Proteas vs England Post series review

England won the test series 2-1 after an excellent performance in the last test at the oval to win the final test by nine wickets.

Well done to England, who played better cricket throughout the series and came out on top at the end of the series. a well-deserved series win for them.

Proteas have a lot of questions regarding their batting department and players from the test squad who are not part of white ball teams in the next few months should use this break to go away and refresh their minds and look to use the SA domestic first class to gain some confidence before the tour to Australia.

Proteas have a lot of work to do when it comes to batting and hope to see them working on those problems and improving before the next series.

The series for Proteas was lost due to lack of runs on the board as the bowlers were superb throughout the series but the batsman never played their part apart from the first test where proteas scored 326 that too with assistance from the bowlers who had to contribute with the bat as well.

Both teams have a lot to work on going forward and both can be released that they will have a break from red-ball cricket as everyone turns their attention toward the T20 world cup.

Match Summary

Proteas are still holding onto a spot in the top 2 in the world test championship, but they are going to have to win at least 4 or 5 of their remaining matches to stay in contention of making the final.

The race for the final is wide open after the result of the test series between England and Proteas. This is going to be a very interesting race once test cricket resumes after the T20 world cup.

Proteas vs India 2nd test Day 1 review

The second test match between Proteas and India kicked off on a high note with the hosts putting up a horrendous batting performance on day 1. The Proteas team won the toss and elected to bat first, but they failed to make the most of the opportunity as the Indian bowlers wreaked havoc on the home team's batting line-up bowling them out for 55. Mohammed Siraj was the chief destroyer with 6 wickets for 15 runs in 9 overs. He was equally supported by Mukesh and Bumrah both taking 2 wickets each. The Indian team lost their first wicket early on, with Jaiswal departing for a duck. The rest of the top-order batsmen struggled to get going as well, and the team was bowled out for 153. However, a brilliant counter-attacking innings from Markram helped the home team to 62-3 at stumps to steady the ship. It was an excellent day for bowlers on both sides as 23 wickets fell for 270 runs. The Proteas bowlers, led by Rabada and Lungi Ngidi, were impressive after t...
