Former Australia captain Simon Katich has termed South Africa skipper Dean Elgar’s tactics and decision-making in the second Test against Australia as “terrible” and added that the field he set on Day Two at the MCG defied logic.

Katich, who played 56 Tests and scored more than 4,000 runs, said had pace bowler Anrich Nortje received a little more support, things could have been different for the visitors. “I thought Elgar was terrible yesterday [Tuesday] with his tactics and decision making,” Katich was quoted as saying by ‘SEN Radio.’
