India vs South Africa Match Prediction- Who Will Win Today’s Match Between IND And SA, South Africa Tour Of India 2022, 2nd T20I

India take on South Africa in the second T20I in Guwahati on Sunday, October 2. The hosts won the first T20I by 8 wickets chasing 107 on a tricky wicket. The visitors need to win the second T20I to keep the series alive. For Indi, this is their final international assignment before they head to the T20 World Cup. South Africa lost five wickets inside the powerplay and ended up scoring 106. For India, Arshdeep Singh picked up three wickets with the new ball and Deepak Chahar took two. Harshal Patel took two wickets in the final phase of the innings. The pitch was not an ideal one for T20 cricket with the ball moving a lot after pitching. However, Temba Bavuma, the Protean skipper blamed his batters for losing the first T20I. He said that after losing five wickets inside the powerplay they failed to apply themselves to the conditions. The Protean batters failed to counter the swing in the first few overs. “As a batting unit we failed to apply ourselves in those conditions. We didn’t expect the pitch to play this way. Yes we expected it to be spicy but normally you will be able to hit through the line in this part of the world. Seamers needed runs behind then to defend. They tried their best and supported by spinners as well. I thought we fought well late with the bat. That’s a positive” said Bavuma. Despite the defeat, the Proteas can be confident of bouncing back in the series. They have never lost a bilateral T20I series in India and certainly have the firepower to make a comeback. South Africa and India last locked horns in a T20I series in June 2022. During the away tour, South Africa played 5 T20I games against the home team India. The series ended in a 2-2 tie. South Africa won the 1st T20I by 7 wickets and the 2nd T20I by 4 wickets. India won the 3rd T20I by 48 runs and the 4th T20I by 82 runs. The 5th T20I was washed out due to rain.
