South African Captain Dean Elgar says “A lot went wrong. Not a lot went right. A bit of a self-reflection may not be a bad idea. We have some unplanned days off to do that. We should be a hell of a lot more competitive.”

New Zealand Captain, Tom Latham: “Its a fantastic performance. Winning the toss was a big part of it. It’s probably the perfect performance. We know how good South Africa are. We expect them to be at their best next game. Our focus is coming out and winning the next Test match.”
