The second T20I between South Africa and India will be played at St George’s Park in Gqeberha. With only a day’s gap between the first and forthcoming T20I, it remains to be seen how the sides adapt to the schedule.

As far as the hosts South Africa are concerned, they need to get their act together, and quickly. They were thoroughly found wanting in the series opener in almost all aspects.

India will be high on confidence after their game in Durban. They might reshuffle their batting order but would be hoping for more of the same in terms of an all-round effort.

Pitch Report

A good blend of pace and bounce for the fast bowlers is expected early on. As the game progresses, spinners might come into play, especially during the phase in the middle. There have been only four T20Is that have been played here, with the last one seeing the hosts defeat India in December 2023.

Head-to-Head Record

Probable Top Performers 

Probable Best Batter: Suryakumar Yadav

The T20I skipper wasn’t in the best of his hitting form in the first game. However, there have been enough and more glimpses from the past where he has arisen from setbacks and delivered a captain’s knock with the bat. Surya could be expected to operate at his usual best in the upcoming game.

Probable Best Bowler: Varun Chakravarthy 

The mystery spinner’s dream run continues as he delivered yet another commanding display of spin bowling in the first game. In the four T20Is he has played ever since the three-plus-year gap, he has looked nothing short of phenomenal.
