Impressed by India's clinical performance against South Africa, former cricket captain Sourav Ganguly said the Proteas have not been outplayed like this in a "long time" and Dhoni's side can gain a lot of courage from such a display. "I don't remember South Africa being outplayed like this in a long time," Ganguly said.
If Dhawan found form against Pakistan with a gutsy 73 then his 137 at the MCG on Sunday was a delight to watch against one of the most potent bowling attacks of the world. Ganguly was all praise for a fellow left-hander. "That innings against Pakistan has given Shikhar (Dhawan) just the kind of confidence he desperately needed and he showed great temperament to build on from where he left the other day to score a magnificent hundred," he said.
