After India thrashed South Africa by seven wickets in the second T20I, batsman Temba Bavuma said that the Indian team is “formidable but not unbeatable”. India registered to a seven-wicket victory over South Africa in the second T20I at the PCA Stadium, Mohali. The first game was abandoned due to rain and with this victory, India took an unassailable lead of 1-0 in the three-match T20I series.

“They are a formidable team but I do not think they are unbeatable side,” Bavuma said in the post-match press conference.

Temba Bavuma, who played a crucial knock of 49 runs for his side, said that for him, it is always the team that comes first, not the personal ambitions.

“I do not see myself as a selfish person. I try and always put the team ahead of all personal ambitions. It is always about the team,” he said.

South Africa put up a target of 150 runs for India. However, Bavuma said that he was expecting to get a total of at least 180 runs as they had a good start but the middle orders failed to anchor that.

“At the half-way stage, I was thinking 180 at least and that would have been a very competitive score. I think we were just not able to get going and I am also to be blamed as I was not really able to get the momentum and all the other big hitters,” Bavuma added.

However, the highlight of the match for South Africa was definitely the stunning catch taken by David Miller to dismiss Shikhar Dhawan.

Praising David Miller for his brilliance, Bavuma said: “I think David Miller’s catch was quite phenomenal. I was at the boundary and thought that it was a six. So, how he managed to get his hands on the ball was spectacular. We really like to be counted as the number one fielding side in the world.”
