South Africa's batting unit displayed a dominant performance in the second T20I against India, scoring 213/4 in the first innings on Thursday, December 11.

Team India captain Suryakumar Yadav won the toss and opted to bowl first in the game. Quinton de Kock (90) set up a great platform for South Africa with a magnificent knock at the top. Middle-order batters Donovan Ferreira (30*) and David Miller (20*) utilized the platform and provided a strong finish, helping their team set a daunting target of 214 for the hosts.

Star Indian pacers Jasprit Bumrah (0/45) and Arshdeep Singh (0/54) endured rare off days as they ended wicketless and conceded at more than 11 runs per over. Even all-rounders Hardik Pandya (0/34) and Axar Patel (1/27) could not step up in their absence to limit the damage.

Ottneil Baartman and Co help South Africa register a comfortable 51-run win vs India in 2nd T20I

In a steep chase of 214, India got off to a poor start as Shubman Gill departed for a golden duck in the first over. Abhishek Sharma (17) and Suryakumar Yadav (5) also returned to the pavilion soon, leaving the hosts at 32/3 in 3.5 overs.

Tilak Varma then tried to bring the chase back on track with a decent knock of 62 (34). However, he did not receive much support from others. Men in Blue eventually got all out for 162 in 19.1 overs and lost the match by 51 runs. Suryakumar Yadav reflected on the loss at the post-match presentation, saying:

"We bowled first, and there was not enough we could do. We had to bat well, but, they understood the lengths to bowl. Dew did come in and stopped us in our tracks, but we weren't good enough with the ball. We have to learn from the lengths they bowled. Shubman (Gill) and I should have batted better, me in particular."

He continued:

"I have to score runs in the coming games. Axar (Patel) was the better choice today, in our opinion, but, it didn't quite click. But let's plan for the next match now."

The two teams will lock horns in the third T20I on Sunday (December 14) at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala.
