Cricket will miss Dean Elgar. A tenacious opener, he served South African cricket for over a decade.
The second Test against India, starting at Cape Town’s picturesque Newlands Cricket Ground on Wednesday, will be his last. And he will be the captain for his swan song (he is standing in for the injured Temba Bavuma). It was as if destiny willed the opener to have this honour. Few men have held a cricket bat with as much pride and grit.
Elgar wants to go out on a winning note.
