Change-room is hurting, guys are down: du Plessis
After conceding their third consecutive defeat in the ongoing World Cup, South Africa skipper Faf du Plessis has admitted that the environment in the dressing room is not great and his team is low on confidence.
On Wednesday, the Proteas were outplayed by India in all the three departments as they lost the match by six wickets at the Ageas Bowl.
Opting to bat, South Africa never got going and were blown away by the Indian bowling attack — spearheaded by Jasprit Bumrah and Yuzvendra Chahal — and were restricted to 227.
None of the Proteas batsmen played a substantial knock and it was only because of Chris Morris (42) — who alongside Andile Phehlukwayo (34) and Kagiso Rabada (31) — that they could reach a total in excess of 200.
