'Not surprised at all': BCCI president Ganguly lauds India's Centurion Test victory
India registered a comprehensive 113-run win over South Africa in the first Test to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. It was also India's first-ever Test victory at the Centurion, which is largely considered to be a fortress for South Africa.
Former India captain said that South Africa will have to play out of their skins to beat this Virat Kohli-led Test team in the ongoing series.
"Great victory for Team India ..not surprised by the result at all...will be a hard team to beat this series..South Africa will have to play out of their skins to do that ..enjoy the new year (sic)," Ganguly wrote on Twitter.
Meanwhile, 49-year-old Ganguly continues to remain "stable" after being tested COVID-19 positive three days ago, the hospital where he is undergoing treatment said on Thursday.
The BCCI president was rushed to a city hospital on Monday night as a precautionary measure after his RT-PCR test returned positive for COVID-19. He was also admitted to hospital twice earlier this year and underwent emergency angioplasty after having some cardiac issues.
