Elgar has been on the winning side more often than not as the Test skipper over the past 18 months.

“What happened in the first test was something amazing for us. We played really sound cricket as we have been doing the last year. The hunger was up there I don’t think it’s going to go anywhere. We want to play a brand of cricket that everybody loves at home and hopefully, the world enjoys. It’s difficult to read the future I hope the second test goes the same way but it’s going to be a lot tougher and England are hurt and will be coming at us with a vengeance,” says Elgar.
