In his first press conference since the India team's defeat in the ODI World Cup final in Ahmedabad last month, captain Rohit Sharma spoke about his "desperation" for a significant victory. In an effort to help the visitors cross their last frontier, he hopes to become the first Indian captain in history to win a Test series in South Africa. However, on that lively SuperSport Park track and under the overcast Centurion sky, India was placed to bat first following a delayed start, and they had a terrible start in the first 30 minutes of the first day of the two-match Test series.
