The eye catching moments in Cricket 2014

Australia defeat South Africa

In Feb 2014, South Africa hosted Australia for a three match test series. It was a contest keenly followed by all the fans across the globe as the world’s two best sides were pitted against each other.

Australia drew the first blood and won the first game to go one up in the series but South Africa came back well to win the next game. In the third and final game Australia pressed on the paddle to win the series 2-1. David Warner hit three centuries and two half centuries in his six innings to prove his metal as Test batsman. Another critical factor for Australia was Mitchell Johnson’s explosive bowling. He was too hot to handle even for talented South Africans.
