India vs South Africa: Playing in our backyard gives us upper hand against visitors, says Dean Elgar

Firstpost  

“I think it’s pretty even-stevens. Us playing at home, obviously, gives us a little bit of an upper hand,” Elgar said ahead of the Boxing Day Test in Centurion. Centurion: South Africa are “wary” of India’s overseas success but home conditions provide the hosts the edge going into the three-Test series beginning here on Sunday, said Proteas skipper Dean Elgar. But the mere fact that we’re playing in our backyard still gives us the upper hand going into the series.” A major portion of India’s overseas success could be attributed to their fast bowling unit and Elgar said the visiting pacers will exploit the South African conditions which is known to offer pace and bounce. Just knowing that we have our seamers and we’ve got a little bit of pace and bounce and the wickets may be do a little bit more in South Africa than it does anywhere else around the world.” India have never won a Test series on South African soil and Kohli’s men will go all out to be the first team to achieve the feat.
