Bjorn Fortuin, Player of the Match: We spoke about it in T20s, different guys contributing in different games. Game time is precious and the best learnings happen on the field. It was nice to come back here and play some cricket.
Gerhard Erasmus: On a day like today, perhaps more lessons. But it was not lack of effort. They had quality spinners, they hit the ball fast, they bowl the ball fast. It was a nice way to expose our players against South Africa.
