Miserable defeat due to inexperience: Elgar

Dean Elgar could not digest the innings defeat to Australia in Melbourne. At the end of the match, he made it clear that the inexperience of the team is responsible for this. South Africa lost the second Test by an innings and 182 runs to trail the series 2-0. To prevent a whitewash, they have to win the last match in Sydney.
In recent years, South Africa has lost Faf du Plessis and Quinton de Kock among many experienced batsmen. Dean Elgar said at the end of the match, “Inexperience made our fight difficult. We have lost a lot of batsmen in the last few years. Boys have the opportunity to take their place, but inexperience is hurting us. ’

Elgar added: “This defeat is not easy to digest. Australia lost us badly. We have to improve a lot of things. There are no positives in this match. There was a lack of experience in batting. We lost quick wickets in the last few overs. But there is one match left and we want to win it. We would rather end the series 2-1 than lose 3-0. ’
