Markram reveals T20 World Cup final heartbreak crossed his mind during WTC Final: 'That gave me a bit of motivation'
Aiden Markram starred in South Africa's historic five-wicket victory over Australia in the World Test Championship final at Lord's with a superb 136, helping the Proteas get over the line in an ICC tournament after countless heartbreaks in the past. read more Aiden Markram revealed thoughts of South Africa's heartbreaking defeat against India in last year's T20 World Cup final in Barbados flooded his mind ahead of Day 4 of the ICC World Test Championship final against Australia at Lord's. The Proteas were left needing just 27 to win from 28 balls with six wickets in hand during the T20 World Cup final at the Kensington Oval, only to crumble to a seven-run loss in the end and watch another ICC trophy slip out of their grasp. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD And ahead of what turned out to be the final day of the WTC Final at the 'Home of Cricket', South Africa were in a comfortable position of 213/2, needing 69 more to win with eight wickets in hand. The Proteas, however, had a history of collapsing under pressure in knockout matches at global tournaments, meaning none of their supporters were breathing easy despite the equation. 'I was like I don't want to sit there again' Markram, however, was determined to finish the job this time and guide South Africa over the line after years of heartbreaks in ICC events, and did so with a superb 136 that helped the Proteas chase down a challenging 282-run target with relative ease . 'I thought a lot about the T20 World Cup last night. And how helpless I felt sitting on the side after getting out and I was like I don't want to sit there again. That gave me a bit of motivation to stay on the crease if I could,' Markram, who was adjudged the 'Player of the Match' for his fine century during the chase, told reporters during the post-match press conference. 'But never once thought about the achievements and what would come with it. It was always about trying to get the job done and trying to win,' he added. Also Read | Bavuma's reveals Australia tried sledging Proteas with 'chokers' tag Markram also touched upon the dreaded 'c-word' that has haunted South Africa since their readmission into international cricket in 1991, adding that it would come as great relief for the Proteas to not be affected by that word anymore, especially after the manner in which they won their first ICC title in 27 years. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'It will be great to not hear it (insults of choking) again, that's for sure. In terms of motivating you, there will always be external things to motivate you. 'But that's not your sole purpose for playing. So to have got the job done. Literally, to have got the job done and to get rid of that is a big thing for this team,' the South African T20 captain added during the presser. Markram reveals reason behind beer-drinking act after victory The 30-year-old also made an interesting revelation during the press conference regarding his beer-drinking act while the Proteas were performing a lap of honour around the iconic venue. 'Yeah that was cool. That was one of my mates from school. He wanted me to come over, I was like 'flip man' it's too busy, it is chaos. He was like, oh 'here's a beer'. I was like Ok,' Markram said, eliciting chuckles from reporters. 'So I've had my first one for the day and I'm pretty sure there will be few more.'

Bravo, Bavuma's boys
Times of India's Edit Page team comprises senior journalists with wide-ranging interests who debate and opine on the news and issues of the day. South Africa became Test champ thanks to grit & patience. Pointers for a young Indian team Choker' is the unkindest of labels in sport. It means you have the talent, but not the temperament to win, especially when it matters most. It means your defeats are caused as much by your opponents as by the demons in your head. It is a terrible cross to bear and post-apartheid South Africa carried it in cricket for nearly three decades. Starting from Allan Donald's needless run-out against Australia in 1999 ODI World Cup semifinal to their capitulation from a dominant position against India in the 2024 T20 World Cup final – the Proteas frequently settled for failure when success looked eager for an embrace. In the World Test Championship final against Australia at Lord's, South Africa rewrote the script, buried the tag of 'choker' forever. They were up against an opponent which relishes the big stage and seldom concedes an inch. But this time captain Temba Bavuma and his men didn't need any. In a high pressure encounter, where every delivery was fiercely contested over four days, South Africa played the game, ignored the occasion. Opener Aiden Markram's 136 will rank among the greatest Test innings of all time. Paceman Kagiso Rabada (5/51 and 4/59) was the knife that cut through Australia. But it was injured captain Bavuma's 66 that was inspirational, typifying the new determined South Africa which deservedly became champions. Hopefully, the triumph will also act as a unifier in a country increasingly torn apart by differences within. South Africa's triumph also carries a lesson or two for a largely inexperienced Team India touring England. Australia were the favourites to win. But S Africa bowled with fire, batted with patience and discipline. They never gave up. They believed. Captain Gill and company would do well to imbibe these traits on a tour that will test them hard.
