Former South African spin bowler Imran Tahir (Imran Tahir South Africa) took a jibe at Team India on India’s continuous defeat. Imran Tahir said that India’s team lost the Test and ODI series to South Africa due to over-confidence. Significantly, in the second ODI, South Africa defeated India by 7 wickets.

Imran Tahir said in his exclusive conversation with a news agency, “I don’t judge any team, but, of course, the Indian team is a great team and South Africa’s team is also getting stronger. But, the Indian team underestimated South Africa and lost the series with this match in overconfidence. Team India’s overconfidence is the main reason for their defeat.
