After Test series, Team India have now lost the ODI series on South Africa tour.
Former South Africa leg-spinner Imran Tahir cited India's overconfidence as the main reason behind their series defeat in Test and ODI against Proteas. India had started with a win in the Test series but ended up losing the last two matches.
In ODIs, South Africa have taken an unassailable lead of 2-0 after winning the first two matches. The hosts beat India convincingly in both the matches by 31 runs and 7 wickets, respectively.
"I don't judge any team but India is a very good side and this South African team is just growing up and India misjudged them and they were overconfident that they can defeat this team easily and this is the main reason for Indian side's defeat," Tahir, who's in Oman for the Legend Cricket league, told ANI.
"India dominating world cricket in Test and one day both from last 4 to 5 years but this Proteas team played very well and they took good advantage of their home conditions and turned it into victory," he added.
Tahir said it's a huge win for a young South African side as they have defeated India, who are dominating the cricket world in both formats.
"This is the biggest victory than anything I believe this win is very special as this team is too young and they beat the nation who is dominating both formats for a long time. SA played so well and locked both series," he said.
The 42-year-old is part of the World Giants squad in the Legends League Cricket. They lost their first match of the tournament against the Asia Lions. "This type of league is too good and I wish it will continue like this in upcoming days so we retired cricketers will meet up and play," he said.
