India beat South Africa by 16 runs in a high-scoring Twenty20 international in Guwahati on Sunday to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series as David Miller and Quinton de Kock's unbeaten 174-run stand was in vain.
David Miller's explosive ton went in vain as Indian bowlers hold their nerve to clinch the T20I series 2-0 after 16 run victory in the second T20I against South Africa at Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati on Sunday. With the win, Team India took an unassailable lead 2-0 over South Africa. For South Africa, Miller slammed an unbeaten 106 in 47 balls while Quinton de Kock played a knock of not out 69 off 48. For India Arshdeep Singh bagged two wickets while Axar Patel settled for one wicket.
All-rounder Wayne Parnell has defended the Proteas top order batsmen after their poor showing in the first T20 International (T20I) against India and believes they are ready to the defeat behind them when match two takes place at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati on Sunday.
Team India had a night to remember on Wednesday, after they registered a magnificent eight-wicket win over South Africa in the first T20I of the three-match series at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram. The pacer duo of Arshdeep Singh and Deepak Chahar rose to the occasion and scalped three wickets and two wickets, respectively, to restrict the Proteas to 106/8. Later, KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav brought up their respective half-centuries to take India across the line in just 16.4 overs, despite initial setbacks.
There is no stopping Suryakumar Yadav in the shortest format of the game in 2022, as he has now become the batter with the highest number of sixes in a calendar year. He reached this landmark during India's first T20I in three-match series against South Africa in Kerala. During the match, chasing a low score of 107 on a tricky pitch offering swing and a great deal of bounce, the wristy right-hander looked head and shoulders above all, seeming to be batting on a different surface.
South Africa's batting unit crumbled as Indian seamers Arshdeep Singh (3/32) and Deepak Chahar (2/24) swung the ball both ways to set up an eight-wicket win for the hosts in the first T20I here on Wednesday night. "I don't think it's a chapter we need to dwell too much on. However, we do need to chat about how we started," Maharaj said at the post-match press conference.
Proteas spinner Keshav Maharaj has always been handy with the bat, but on Wednesday in Thiruvananthapuram, he was much more than that.
NEW DELHI: KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav smashed unbeaten fifties to lead India to an eight-wicket victory over South Africa in the opening Twenty20 International in Thiruvananthapuram on Wednesday (Sep 28).
