In Australia, umpire Richard Illingworth spent more time in a lift in one day, than all umpires in SA, in 2023. #batonkhawaja

Final Frontier should be renamed ‘Dean Elgar’.
One man standing between India and a series win in South Africa. On two consecutive tours. #SAvInd

Really stoked that Elgar. Always want to see someone go out on top when they have served their country with such distinction. Awesome to see #SAvsIND

A day of attrition and fight back at Melbourne today. At the end Pakistan trumped Australia to win the day! Heading towards a great finish.

The reason I love watching Pakistan is days like this … they go from Genius to wheels off within in 10 mins .. #AUSvPAK ..

Sometimes the game can be unfair. That has been as good a spell of seam bowling from Hasan Ali as I’ve seen from him for a while. But no reward.

The ELGARITHM!

Tough as nails! Hardest opening batter out there, no 1 in the world! https://t.co/3ZlY2dYP3N

Salute to Dean Elgar. He has so often scores what seems to be tough runs. To avg nearly 50 opening the batting in South African conditions is laudable.
