Aiden Markram on the team, Ngidi’s role and the next match
South Africa captain Aiden Markram praised the performance as a "great performance, " saying it was a very different type of wicket but that it was good to see everyone execute their plans and that they were "pumped for the bowling crew, they've been working hard. " He said the partnership between Dewald Brevis and David Miller "steadied the ship and kept us in the game, " and that looking at where they could run hard and batting in the middle was the difference.
On fielding, Markram acknowledged they "put two down but not for lack of effort, " and compared it to the UAE game when they were "not as connected as we'd like but it was better today. " On Lungi Ngidi’s role, Markram said he is "a threat whenever and can take wickets throughout the middle phase, " adding that it depends on conditions, they sometimes hold him back and assess on game days, and that Ngidi is "happy to do anything, a proper team soldier. " Looking ahead to the next match, Markram said they would enjoy the result but "park it and get our minds sharp, " noting they did not want to take confidence and good vibes for granted.
