Watch: Dean Elgar excels on Essex debut
The former Proteas captain had an impressive knock in his outing for his County Championship team.
Dean Elgar made an immediate impact for Essex in their opening County Championship match against Nottinghamshire.
The former Proteas captain hit the first ball he faced yesterday to the boundary, and went on to score 80 off 156 balls (12 fours) before being knocked over by South African pace bowler Dane Paterson.
When you bowl to a man with over 5,000 Test runs, anything loose will get punished
