India v South Africa Test series - South Africa Player Ratings

Kyle Abbott – 7/10:

He got his first opportunity in this series in the 2nd Test. The match was washed out and Abbott went wicketless in the first innings and was run out for 14 during the Proteas first innings. He did not play at Nagpur but featured in the last Test where he impressed all with his immaculate line and length. He was unlucky to have dismissed Vijay on a no-ball early in the innings and when skipper Amla dropped one off his bowling in the slips. But the fast bowler came back good to end the first innings with a 5/40. In the 2nd innings, he took the crucial wicket of Kohli who was batting at 88. He swung the ball both ways and was highly impressive with his accuracy too.
