The Proteas have had many heady moments over the past six months. They have won both Test and ODI series in Pakistan and Bangladesh.
South Africa performed well at Chennai on Saturday on the fourth day of the Future Cup Test series against India.
The team started the day with their backs to the wall. India still had nine first innings wickets intact, including Virender Sehwag with an unbeaten triple century, and needed only a further 72 runs to go past the Proteas first innings total of 540.
By the close of Saturday the Proteas had taken nine wickets for 159 runs to restrict India to a manageable first innings lead of 87 runs and had then made 131 runs of their own in their second attempt at bat for the loss of Graeme Smith’s wicket for an overall lead of 44 runs.
