Duminy has failed consistently against England and India

Since 2010, South Africa has recorded the best win-loss ratio in Test cricket. Their ratio of 2.200 is followed by India (1.772), Australia (1.448) and England (1.312).

Out of these top three countries, Duminy has performed well only against Australia. He averages 44.22 against the Aussies but his performances against India and England, the two teams that have dominated Test cricket in this decade are abysmal.

Against England, he averages a mediocre 24.21 in 17 innings while against India his average slips down to 10.90. Interestingly he scored only two fifties against England and has no scores of fifties against India in 11 innings.

This staggering failure against the best teams is a prime reason why Duminy has flopped in Test cricket.
