South Africa beat India comprehensively by 408 runs in the second Test on Wednesday (November 26) at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. It is the heaviest defeat for the hosts in the longest format.

Overnight batters Sai Sudharsan (14) and Kuldeep Yadav (5) began for India at 27/2 on the final day. The two played defensively before Simon Harmer dismissed Yadav, giving the visitors their first breakthrough on Wednesday. Simon Harmer (6/37) and Keshav Maharaj (2/37) then spun a web around the Indian batters, triggering a collapse.

As a result, the subcontinental team got all out for 140 and surrendered meekly in the chase of 549. Veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja (54) top-scored for India in the batting department with a half-century, which ended in vain.

Team India's poor performances in all departments across the two Tests against South Africa disappointed fans. They expressed their frustrations on social media platforms by sharing memes. One fan wrote:

"From ‘ek chakke ne WC nahi jitaya’ to ‘I won India the Champions Trophy and Asia Cup’. Gambhir has come a long way in taking credits."

"It’s a reminder that you can’t take anything for granted" - Rishabh Pant after India's loss vs South Africa in 2nd Test

At the post-match presentation, Team India captain Rishabh Pant reflected on the dismal series loss, saying:

"It’s a disappointing result, and as a team we know we have to improve. Credit to South Africa, they simply played better cricket throughout the series. We’ll take the lessons from this, stay together as a group, and work on the areas where we fell short. South Africa really dominated, and it’s a reminder that you can’t take anything for granted in this game.

"There were key moments where we didn’t capitalise, and that’s something we need to focus on. Whether you’re playing at home or away, the game demands full commitment, and we couldn’t produce that consistently across the series. There were a few positives, small phases where we played well, but we need to build on those and be much better going forward," Pant added.

The two teams will next square off in a three-match ODI series, which will commence on Sunday (November 30) at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi.
