Team India was defeated by only one player from South Africa, captured the match like this

India vs South Africa Ravi Shastri Praises Keegan Petersen: South Africa performed brilliantly, defeating India by 7 wickets in the Cape Town Test. With this win, he captured the series as well. Although all the players contribute in the victory of any team, but sometimes teams win the match on the basis of only one player. However, the contribution of other players cannot be denied. This has happened in Cape Town as well. Keegan Pietersen played an important role in South Africa’s victory.

At the same time, he played in the second innings also. Keegan scored 82 runs off 113 balls. In this way, he was important in the victory of the African team.
