Kolkata, Nov 4: South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma is basking in the glory of a string of dazzling performances in the World Cup but indicated that facing quality Indian spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja on Sunday could test his batters when the teams clash here on Sunday.
Riding on their superlative performance, South Africa are on a four-match winning streak as they face Rohit Sharma’s unbeaten side in a top-of-the-table clash at the Eden Gardens and Bavuma said his side will draw energy from the “positive sentiment floating around the team”.
“Kuldeep has bowled very well. He’s been taking wickets for them in the middle, in conjunction with Jadeja.”
“So, they’ve been quite key within that middle phase. I think we’ve played spin quite well as a team over the last couple of years. So, it’ll be a good test for us batters,” he said. (PTI)
