JOHANNESBURG: Like all good things, India's tour to South Africa also came to an end with the final ODI in Centurion on Sunday. The tour was a huge success in terms of providing quality cricket, keen contests and fan support. Most of the matches - Tests, ODIs and the one T20 game - saw the teams fight all the way in front of full stadiums. The last one-dayer was in danger of proving to be an anti-climax before Yusuf Pathan rescued it with an incredible knock to give the tour a befitting end.
Cricket South Africa is so happy with the way the tour went that CEO Gerald Majola now wants 'icon status' for all India-South Africa series. "All agree that this was one of the most exciting tours in recent history and was filled with competitive and quality cricket throughout by two of the world's top teams. This has proved conclusively that future tours between South Africa and India should be given icon status, with a minimum of four Tests on offer," Majola said.
