"Tests results reveal the true health of...": Sanjay Manjrekar
India's home series against South Africa had plenty of highs and lows. While the festivities surrounding Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli's return in ODI leg and their runs still occupy news headlines and the exploits of a young T20I side despite some minor flaws continue to leave a nation in awe, the memories of 0-2 whitewash, India's second whitewash at home in back-to-back years still pain the cricketing die-hards who were treated to the 12-year-long dominant run at home under captains MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli and were blessed with a privilege of watching the 'Fab Five' legends Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Virender Sehwag, Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman at peak of their powers in early 2000s.

"Banker when things go sour": Uthappa hails Bumrah's spell
Aside from half-centuries from Hardik Pandya and Tilak Varma and a four-fer from spinner Varun Chakravarthy, Bumrah delivered a heroic, but yet a silent, under-the-radar performance which helped India seal the series 2-1. Just when Proteas were cruising at 120-odd after 10 overs with QDK and Dewald Brevis at the crease, Bumrah caught and bowled Quinton for a 35-ball 65, which triggered South Africa's downfall. Varun, who had a double wicket over to dismiss Aiden Markram and Donovan Ferreira, was also Bumrah's partner-in-destruction against the Proteas with his spin.

"Plenty to take away": Aiden Markram after 30-run defeat
"Still, there's plenty to take away - lessons we'll learn as a group. And with quite a few World Cup games being played here, I'm sure this experience will prove valuable. We wanted to expose Brevis to that pressure situation. He makes batting look really easy at times, and that phase of the game was important. There was also a tactical angle - left-right combinations, trying to make things as difficult as possible for the opposition. In T20 cricket, there isn't always a strict batting order; much of it comes down to gut feel. "That's what we went with tonight, and I think flexibility is something most T20 teams rely on," Markram added.
