5 big moments under Russell Domingo

#4 ODI series win in UAE, Sri Lanka, New Zealand and India

South Africa found a lot of success in one-day cricket under Domingo

Like in the longer-format, Domingo’s boys spread glory in one-day cricket alike when South Africa set about travelling. After Graeme Smith gave up on limited-overs captaincy post the 2011 World Cup, South Africa appointed AB de Villiers as their captain and the move worked almost instantly.

While playing Pakistan in the challenging heat of the UAE in 2013, de Villiers and men beat Pakistan 4-1. On tour in Sri Lanka a year later, the victory margin was 2-1. Just months later, South Africa won 2-0 in New Zealand after an abandoned third ODI and then 3-2 in 2017. In between in 2015, another 3-2 triumph under the duo of de Villiers and Domingo – this time in India – left few doubters for a pool of exceptional cricketers.

Batsmen Quinton de Kock and David Miller and leg-spinner Imran Tahir developed into a brutal ODI force to provide the required power and bolster the group of seniors under Domingo’s fantastic reign.
