Runs only matter if you win: South Africa’s Aiden Markram

Aiden Markram

Architect of South Africa's series-levelling win in the second ODI against India here, Aiden Markram says scoring runs matters only when the team wins. Markram, whose 110 on Wednesday set the stage for South Africa's four-wicket win in a chase of 359, fell cheaply in the first ODI at Ranchi where India beat SA by 17 runs.

"Runs only matter if you win games. If we had lost today, I'd be as miserable as I would have been in the previous game. Getting the result makes me really happy," Markram said after the win.
