GROS ISLET, Saint Lucia - Suresh Raina praised the influence of India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and coach Gary Kirsten after he became only the third player to score a Twenty20 international hundred.
Left-hander Raina's 101 was the cornerstone of India's 186 for five against South Africa on Sunday.
In reply, the Proteas finished on 172 for five and India's 14-run win saw them into the second round after they opened their group campaign with a comfortable victory over Afghanistan on Saturday.
