1st Test: 'I'm Not A Stats Man, I'm A Win Man', Says Harmer After SA’s Win Over India
South Africa: South Africa off-spinner Simon Harmer, who picked four-wicket hauls in both innings during the side’s 30-run win over India in the first Test at the Eden Gardens, said he values victories over personal milestones.
The famous 30-run victory coming inside three days also gave South Africa their first Test win in India in 15 years and a 1-0 lead in the two-match series. Harmer, who had figures of 4-30 in the first innings, struck key blows in the second session to pick 4-21 and play a huge role in bundling out the hosts for 93.
“I felt today it was a bit flatter as the ball got older, it wasn't exploding as much. I asked myself some hard questions. Nice to contribute. I have been here before and it was a dark place. So to get here and be in this position, to be behind the eight ball again and to be able to fight back the way we did just shows our belief.
