Reeza Hendricks said the Proteas always had the belief they could chase down West Indies' mammoth target after South Africa made history smashing the world record for the highest run chase in T20 internationals against West Indies at Centurion on Sunday.
Hendricks said discussions in the dressing room kept them believing in their ability to reel in the target, which SA did with seven balls to spare despite some light rain in the highveld air.
“But it was unbelievable to be a part of having Quinton at the other end playing the way he did and I could just play second fiddle. “I would suggest our performance was equivalent to the 438 game and to be part of it was quite brilliant. The Proteas now hold the T20 and ODI world records, after their famous 438/9 chasing Australia's 434/4 at the Wanderers in 2006 in the 50-over format.
