Proteas ODI captain Temba Bavuma wasn't disappointed with how the four ODI debutants faired against the West Indies on Saturday.
Tony de Zorzi, Ryan Rickelton, Tristan Stubbs and Gerald Coetzee all batted with Bavuma during the 48-run loss at Buffalo Park, but Bavuma was far more chuffed with the gains made in the absence of experienced combatants. Bavuma agreed that the absence of a finisher like David Miller was missed in taking the game home for the hosts, but the skipper, who made 144, saw the longer-terms gains."I enjoyed batting with guys like Tony, Stubbs and Rickelton," Bavuma said.
"Having a guy like Miller, in the form that he's in and the situation, the result would have been different.
