New Delhi: India will lock horns with South Africa in the third T20I of the four-match series at the SuperSport Park in Centurion on Wednesday. The Men in Blue would be eager to bounce back in the game after they went down in the second T20I by just 3 wickets, allowing the hosts to level the series 1-1. India had earlier clinched an emphatic victory in the series opener in Durban.
While the main headline for Team India in the Durban T20I was an exemplary batting followed by classic bowling, the second match proved otherwise as batters failed to prove their might with India scoring just 124 runs in the first innings. The top three batters, including Durban T20I’s centurion Sanju Samson, failed to showcase their skills with middle-order players including Tilak Varma and Hardik Pandya accumulating few runs to save some pride.
For the Proteas, the low-scoring encounter proved to be a tough chase after Varun Chakaravarthy shined with the ball claiming a five-wicket haul. But at the end, the hosts managed to complete the task in the second-last over to equalise the series. Ahead of the crucial third encounter, let’s take a look at few details.
