ODI series win against India would give us a helluva lot of confidence: Bavuma

CAPE TOWN, Jan 16: South Africa white-ball skipper Temba Bavuma believes that a series win in the ODIs against India will give his team a lot of confidence. He added that his main focus will be in sticking to the South African style of play and executing the strategies well. "We will have to get things right in the next ODI series against India. I'm not too worried about what happened in that 2018 series. I'm more concerned about establishing our own style of play and implementing our strategy to good effect. A ODI series win against India would give us a helluva lot of confidence, and some momentum ahead of the games to follow," Bavuma was quoted as saying by 'Daily Maverick'.

Bavuma feels the image of South Africa's white-ball side is changing after the campaign in the 2021 Men's T20 World Cup. In the mega event in the UAE, South Africa had won four out of its five Group 1 matches, only to miss the semi-finals on the basis of net run-rate due to the loss in the tournament opener.
