Cricket: Upbeat SA set to face Eng with changed equation in Cape Town

South African team trained ahead of their second Test match against England in Cape Town. The hosts are one up in the four-Test series following a 107-run win in Centurion. The Proteas are all set to face the English side in the second Test in Cape Town with a changed equation in the team. Pieter Malan is set to become South Africa's eighth Test debutant in five matches during the New Year's Test. Malan will replace the injured Aiden Markram. South Africa are upbeat after winning the first match by a big margin, but, for them, it’s an emotional moment as well. One of the bowlers who did the damage in the opening Test was the medium-pacer Vernon Philander, who will retire at the end of the four-test series. The 34-year-old pacer described his last test in Cape Town as 'very emotional.'
