On being asked how many times has he hit six sixes in an innings, the skipper, who scored an unbeaten 78 said: "It's quite a small ground but I will take six of those sixes... it was a nice wicket to bat on."
The South African also praised the bowlers for their aggressive mindset.
"We got to 190 but it was important for the bowlers to bowl well, they came out with an aggressive mindset. Hopefully, we can make it better." (Mohammed Shami Ruled Out)
