South Africa lost the three-match ODI series against Shikhar Dhawan-led India by a margin of 1-2 in New Delhi on Tuesday, 11 October. They suffered a humiliating seven wickets loss in the third and final ODI of the series.
Put to bat first, the David Miller-led South Africa were bundled out for just 99 runs. India, in reply, rode on Shubman Gill's flamboyant knock to gun down the target in just 19.1 overs with seven wickets in hand.
Losing both the T20I and ODI series against India, that too ahead of the T20 World Cup 2022 must have damaged the confidence of the Proteas. Meanwhile, their head coach Mark Boucher is of a different opinion.
Speaking after the match in Delhi, Boucher brushed aside South Africa's' bowling concerns and said the conditions in Australia will heavily assist their seamers.
"Australia will suit our fast bowlers a lot better. We have got some good pace, and some good bounce in our attack, so we need to keep the aggression there. I think the last one-day game we played there wasn't enough aggression."
