5 Best Test Knocks of the Last Decade
1.)AB De villiers & Faf Du Plessis v/s Australia ,Adelaide 2012
If we would have to decide who were the modern day greats, especially in One-day International, these two would definitely feature in the list. On their day, they can score the fastest century and can tear apart any bowling attack. But here, they needed to show their other skill. It was the real test, maybe the test they would definitely want to pass when they were growing up.
Australia setup a target of 430 for the proteas to chase down in 4 and half sessions. South Africa went to bat with 50 overs to spare on the fourth day. At the end of the day, Africa lost 4 of their batsman, but they had De Villiers & Du Plessis were there.
De Villiers scored 33 runs of 246 balls and showed amazing control and temperament. Du Plessis Showed a great presence of mind in his debut match and scored a century while facing 446 balls. De Villiers got out but Du Plessis played throughout the day and saved a test match for the Africans. These innings definitely ranks among the best in the last decade.
