In total, this batsman regretted the double century despite playing an innings of 177 runs in 269 balls with 12 fours and 4 sixes after batting for seven hours. At the end of the day, regret has fallen in his voice.
This batter says, 'Yes (there is frustration). There was definitely a chance to make two hundred. A situation will not arise every day, where there will be enough time to do two hundred. Today I had an opportunity to score two hundred or more runs.'
Apart from De Georgi, Tristan Stubbs and Vian Mulder scored their first century in Chittagong. Besides, David Bedingham and Senuran Muthusamy played fifty-touch innings. South Africa declared the innings at 575 for 6 wickets. In response, Bangladesh lost 4 wickets while scoring 38 runs in the last afternoon.
On which Georgi said, 'When you have KG (Kagiso Rabada) in the playing XI, anything can happen. We are lucky to have him. (Dan) Pietersen took the wicket with controlled bowling. The point for us was to take advantage of Bangladesh's fatigue. If I were an opener, I would not be happy to bat in those conditions. A tired body and mind can be anything. We were in the right place at the right time.'
