Though he would not be baited by the media into calling it a World Cup final rematch, Proteas captain Aiden Markram did admit yesterday his team were eager to hit back against India in the first fixture of their T20 International series in Durban today.
South Africa will face India for the first time since they lost by seven runs to the world's top-ranked side in the T20 World Cup final in Barbados in June.
"I wouldn't say it brings up any scars from the World Cup, but obviously it brings out a lot of excitement to try get one back on them," Markram said.
