Smith, who was himself given the captaincy as a 22-year old after South Africa's initial exit from the 2003 World Cup, said 23-year old Markram, who had just played two ODIs before he was pushed into the part, ought to have been permitted to "develop, create and turn into a solid player." Markram made 8, 32, 22, 32 and 24 out of five innings as chief, and completed the arrangement with 127 keeps running at a normal of a little more than 21.

"I don't think it was the correct choice," Smith told ESPNcricinfo at Wanderers. "Everybody has been discussing his administration. Presumably originating from me that doesn't bode well since I landed given the position at an extremely youthful age. I think it was a between time thing, not a full-time thing. I would have rather have had him discover his place, discover his feet inside the one-day set-up, attempt and get keeps running behind him. South Africa require players to advance up and perform.

"I think for the time being, with AB coming in after three diversions he could have ventured in, and they could have taken a gander at Duminy or Amla in the main couple and permitted somebody like Markram just to settle. One, he was batting out of position at No. 4 toward the beginning of the arrangement, something he needed to deal with, and afterward, you've helped him under strain without anyone else diversion as well as a chief. He would have picked up a considerable measure encounter astute however allows simply trust his certainty hasn't taken an imprint.

"His exhibitions since the beginning of his profession say that he can bat at this level. He's clearly got the authority qualifications from Under-19, he's talked exceedingly as an identity and as a man develops for his age. Be that as it may, I simply think enabling him to develop and create and turn into a solid player inside the line-up, we are discussing the following level of cricketers. There's a drop-off between perhaps four or five senior players and the following level. In this way, permit those folks to create.

"What was disillusioning for me was that I don't think the other senior players ventured up around him - the Amlas, Duminys, Millers, those folks just never made them go from an execution viewpoint, a power point of view. They expected to get behind and lead the way nearly."

South Africa started the ODI arrangement against India as the world's best-positioned group and on a 17-coordinate winning streak at home. Be that as it may, wounds to key players, for example, Faf du Plessis, AB de Villiers and Quinton de Kock at different focuses in the arrangement implied they were never at full quality against a solid Indian outfit. The batting was additionally uncovered against India's wrist spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal, who joined to take 33 wickets in the arrangement. Viewing the South Africa batsmen surrender from a separation, Smith said they were done in by an absence of arranging in their approach against the two spinners.

"You got the opportunity to ponder what the visit was about in the changeroom and how they go about it," Smith said. "Clearly two world-class spinners, Chahal and Kuldeep, fantastic finds for India. It's only incredible to see some turn return into the diversion. The secret spinners had left the amusement for a timeframe - the Ajmals, Warnes, Muralitharans, there's been a tad of a hole. Thus, it's awesome to see two folks like that come into the amusement, it makes the diversion extremely fascinating to watch.

"South Africa truly had no idea, no arrangement B or C. It was extremely simply spotted ball, dab ball, 'affirm how about we have a swing.' There was no genuine arrangement, we should attempt to manufacture an organization, it was relatively similar to as the association constructs it gets marginally less demanding and South Africa never figured out how."
Prior to the arrangement started, the popular expression rising up out of the South African camp was "Vision 2019," with the group's initiative gathering talking openly about its goal to give players presentation trying to locate the best blend for the 2019 World Cup in England. Smith said this difficulty against India could be "something to be thankful for" for South Africa, if they draw the correct lessons from it.

"In the event that the authority deliberately gets the reasoning right, gets the strategies right and includes the correct sorts of players, I figure this can be something worth being thankful for South Africa," he said. "They've uncovered a couple of more players to the worldwide amusement, they have a couple of more players to take a gander at and think to approve, 'how might I position that person there, affirm he appears as though he may have something' and they've had some presentation.

"Over the long haul, there's sufficiently still time for the World Cup to think this concept could be something to be thankful for. Yet, that is just if Faf and Ottis [Gibson] and the determination board get their head in the correct place and deliberately pick. Once any semblance of de Villiers, Faf himself and de Kock are back fit, how would they assemble a line up that will win a World Cup."
