After Kolkata win, SA set eyes on series win in Guwahati
The Statesman Siliguri
|November 18, 2025
South Africa head coach Shukri Conrad has shifted his focus to sealing a rare series win in India after his team’s thrilling 30-run victory inside three days in Kolkata.
The visitors ended a 15-year wait for a Test win on Indian soil with a spirited comeback at Eden Gardens. Elated but hungry for more, Conrad made it clear that the bigger goal lies ahead, securing a Test series win in India, something South Africa last achieved in 2000.
“This was right up there for us. Coming to India, playing at Eden Gardens, doing something we haven't done for 15 years, this is right up there,” he said, reflecting on the breakthrough result.
“We won a Test match in Pakistan, we've now won a Test match here but the job’s far from done. You don't come to a country to win a Test match, you obviously want to win the series.”
