[said yesterday:]: Yes, I would like to have him back. It's up to him but he is certainly someone we'd like back.

[ said]: We were fantastic for 80 overs and then the rain delay upset our rhythm. I believe we can take a lot more positives than negatives from the game,

Nel [ added]: I would like to thank my captain, Graeme Smith, and my coaches, Mickey Arthur and Vinnie Barnes, and all my Proteas’ team mates for their support and guidance. To the fans who have supported me, you have made playing at the highest level something very special for me. I am sorry I did not have the chance to say farewell from the field.
