New Zealand were beaten comprehensibly by South Africa in the second Test in Christchurch on Tuesday but that doesn't mean the hosts did not have their share of brilliance in the series-deciding final Test match. On Day 4, Will Young pulled off an "outrageous" catch to dismiss South Africa pacer Marco Jansen. During the 79th over of South Africa's second innings, Jansen had flicked Colin de Grandhomme's delivery towards the deep midwicket region.
South Africa captain Dean Elgar felt vindicated after his "bold" decision to bat first paved the way for a dominant second Test win over New Zealand that levelled the series on Tuesday. The Proteas' batsmen had been routed for 95 and 111 in the series-opener at Christchurch on the way to their second-worst Test defeat after being sent in to bat first by New Zealand's stand-in skipper Tom Latham.
South Africa spinner Keshav Maharaj said that he is grateful for the opportunity of playing in the Test series against New Zealand. Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen were the standout performers with the ball in the final innings as South Africa defeated New Zealand by 198 runs in the second Test at the Hagley Oval on Tuesday. "It's always nice to end up on the winning note. Luckily the rain gods were on our side and managed to get us back on the field. Thanks to the coaching staff, I'm just working on my game and always waiting for the opportunity. I just want to make an impact in the team's win, I just keep bowling and bowling when I'm not playing and try to follow a routine," said Keshav Maharaj after the final day.
New Zealand's hopes of defending their World Test Championship suffered a major setback when South Africa crushed them by 198 runs in the second Test in Christchurch on Tuesday. It was New Zealand's third defeat in six Tests over the past three months, and their second at home, where they have enjoyed being almost unassailable in recent years. A defeat in India in December was followed by a shock first defeat to Bangladesh at Mount Maunganui in January before being outclassed by South Africa at Hagley Oval.
Steve Smith says he is confident he will not be affected by his recent concussion when he takes the field in Australia's first Test against Pakistan in Rawalpindi.

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan is hopeful that all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan will be playing the Test series against South Africa, after going unsold during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, mega auctions.
