India became the first Asian team to win a Test match at Centurion after a crushing 113-run victory over South Africa in the first test match.
 The only other teams to beat South Africa in Centurion are England (2000) and Australia (2014).
In the memorable Indian win, there has been special praise for the captain Virat Kohli. The great cricketer Sachin Tendulkar is especially all praise for the captain.
India's fiery pace unit, including the world-class Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, picked up 18 wickets to make the country the first Asian team to win a Test match at the SuperSport Park.
President of the Board of Cricket Control of India, Sourav Ganguly has said that it was a Great victory for Team India and he was not surprised by the result at all. He has said that India will be a hard team to beat in this series.
The Indian Cricket Team is all charged up to win the second test match and lift the trophy. The five-day match started on January 3 at Johannesburg for the Three Test Freedom Trophy Series in South Africa.
Unfortunately for India the star player and captain, Virat Kohli, has been ruled out of the second test because of a spack on his upper back. Stand-in skipper K. L. Rahul would be leading India in his absence.
