'Jai Shree Ram': South Africa's Keshav Maharaj after series win over India

Cape Town, Jan 25: With India suffering painful defeat at the hands of South Africa in here, the Proteas scripted a historic series win with 3-0. With the hosts celebrating the win, one player whose celebratory post caught our attention was spinner Keshav Maharaj who wrote 'Jai Shree Ram' in his Instagram post.

 

 

After the series win over India, South African spinner Maharaj, who twice took the wicket of Virat Kohli took to Instagram and posted a curious caption alongside his team's celebratory pictures.

 

"What a Series it’s been couldn’t be more proud of this team and how far we have come time to recharge and prepare for the next one. Jai Shree Raam," read Keshav Maharaj's caption.

 

Keshav Maharaj played a crucial role in the ODI series, picking up three wickets in as many games. In the second ODI in Paarl, he became the first spinner in ODI cricket history to dismiss ex-Indian skipper Virat Kohli for a duck.

 

In the third ODI also, Kohli was looking dangerous as he scored his fifty, but Maharaj halted his progress and dismissed the 33-year-old for a score of 65 runs. Maharaj played in all matches of the tour, playing all three Test matches against India, and in the ODI series as well.
