Great win from SL, unlike India they had to beat a full strength to get their special piece of history.
SA batting looking pretty thin with de Villiers gone & Amla fading.
Well no, they beat 10 men in the second innings of the first test and there was no Philander (or Ngidi for that matter) in the second.
What does it matter though. India didn’t have Ashwin for 3 tests either when they were here and ended up having to use a makeshift opener after one busted his ankle before playing a match and another could barely get bat on ball
