Two days after a fan breached security in Ranchi during the first ODI against South Africa to meet Virat Kohli, a similar incident occurred in the second game in Raipur on Wednesday, December 3. In a video shared on X, a spectator was seen getting dragged by the authorities off the ground.

The incident occurred during one of the drinks breaks, as the fan entered the ground to meet Kohli, who scored his second consecutive ODI ton. During the first ODI in Ranchi, a fan breached the security and fell in the 37-year-old's feet when he was celebrating his ton.

Here's the video of the fan in Raipur getting dragged off the field:

According to a report by The Telegraph, the fan in Ranchi was arrested by the Jharkhand police, and his father was informed about the possibility of his son going to the prison.

Having accumulated 102 off 93 deliveries and stitching a 195-run stand with Ruturaj Gaikwad (105), Kohli set the foundation for a big total for India. Later, KL Rahul smashed an unbeaten 66 off 43 deliveries to propel Team India to 358/5 in their stipulated 50 overs.

Although Quinton de Kock fell for 8 within the first 10 overs, Aiden Markram and Temba Bavuma produced a 101-run stand to set the foundation for the steep run chase. After Markram perished for 110 to Harshit Rana, Matthew Breetzke and Dewald Brevis set things in motion with their brisk half-centuries. The 92-run stand, helped largely by Brevis' 54 off 34 deliveries, laced with three sixes, made things massively comfortable for the Proteas.

Although Breetzke (68) and Marco Jansen (2) fell in consecutive overs, Corbin Bosch held his nerve to steer the vistors over the line with an unbeaten 29. It is also the joint-highest successful run-chase against India in ODIs. The third and final ODI will take place on Saturday, December 6, in Vishakhapatnam.
