Ranchi: Left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem said that it would be a 'dream debut' for any cricketer who does it on his home ground. Nadeem's dream of playing for India was fulfilled on Saturday when he made his international debut in the third Test against South Africa here. And yesterday he made it a debut worth remembering as he finished with figures of 2-22 in South Africa's first innings at the JSCA Stadium.

Speaking at the post-match presser, Nadeem, 30, said: "It is a good thing that as a cricketer you are making a debut and that too in your home ground. I would say it can be a dream debut for any player who does it in his home town." India's pace prowess came to the fore yet again as Mohammad Shami and Umesh Yadav bossed over a fragile South African batting line-up to put the hosts on the cusp of a 3-0 whitewash.
