South Africa have silenced the doubters: Markram

London, June 15 (UNI) Aiden Markram hopes South Africa’s ICC World Test Championship Final win over Australia has silenced any doubters and consigned their ‘chokers’ tag to history.

The 30-year-old opener took his side to the brink of the winning line, falling with his side six runs shy of completing the job, as they lifted their first major ICC trophy since 1998.
