South Africa vs India, 2nd ODI: Match Details, Expected Playing 11 and Squad Details

South Africa vs India: The Indian team is currently on a South Africa tour, where a three-match T20 series has been played between the two teams. Under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, the Indian team's performance in T20 was excellent. The team, loaded with youngsters, leveled the series at 1-1, where one match could not be completed due to rain.

After the T20 series, the Indian team faces the challenge of a three-match ODI series. The first match of the series was played at the New Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg, where the performance of the Indian team was decent. The Indian team, led by KL Rahul, all-out South Africa for just 116 runs in 27.3 overs. In reply, the Indian team chased the target in just 16.4 overs and won the match by eight wickets.

Indian bowlers showed good performances in the first match of the series. Arshdeep Singh, returning to the team, took five wickets for just 37 runs in a total of 10 overs. This was the best performance of his career. Young bowler Avesh Khan also took four wickets for 27 runs in 8 overs. Kuldeep Yadav also took one wicket.

Sai Sudharsan, who performed well for the Gujarat Titans in the IPL, played his first match for the Indian team against South Africa. In his very first match, he demonstrated his batting skills by scoring a half-century. Sudharsan played a not-out inning off 55 runs on 43 balls with the help of nine fours. In the IPL last year, he scored 507 runs in 13 matches at an average of 127 for the Gujarat Titans. In the coming times, Sudharsan can be seen filling the shoes of Shikhar Dhawan.
