South African all-rounder Keshav Maharaj has received a signed Indian jersey from Team India's batting legend Virat Kohli following the conclusion of the two-match Test series at Newlands Cricket Ground in Cape Town on Thursday, January 4.
Team India clinched the victory in the final match of the Test series with a seven-wicket win over Proteas in Cape Town. With this historic win, Rohit Sharma-led team became the Asian side to win a Test match at Newlands.
The second Test was happened to be stand-in South African skipper Dean Elgar's farewell match of his Test career, but the visitors spoiled the party. Rohit Sharma gifted a signed Indian jersey to Elgar after the final Test of the series.
Keshav Maharaj personally received a signed Indian Test jersey from Virat Kohli. He posted the picture on his Instagram handle and captioned, "One for the wall. Thank you @virat.kohli"
Earlier, Virat Kohli gifted his signed Indian jersey to South African legend Dean Elgar and congratulated him for his illustrious Test career. The former Indian skipper already won the hearts of cricket fans by requesting the crowd not to celebrate Elgar's wicket but rather bow him down, honouring his legacy in Test Cricket.
Moreover, Virat Kohli congratulated South African Aiden Markram for scoring a century in the second innings of the Cape Town Test.
