South Africa captain Temba Bavuma said his team is determined to accomplish their long-awaited goal of winning a Test series in India as they begin a two-match contest at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens on Friday.
Fresh from a 1-1 draw in Pakistan and buoyed by their WTC triumph in June, Bavuma called victory in India their next biggest ambition. Returning from injury, he stressed the challenge of playing in India but expressed confidence in the group.
South Africa, who last won a series in India in 2000, are eager to make this their festive season as they aim for a historic breakthrough.
