India vs South Africa 2nd ODI - Ranchi Weather Forecast and Pitch Report?: After suffering a defeat in the series opener at Lucknow?s Ekana Stadium, Shikhar Dhawan-led team India will be keen on levelling the three-match ODI series against South Africa at Ranchi as the two sides gear up for the 2nd ODI.?



Despite a praiseworthy fightback from Sanju Samson, India lost the 1st ODI by nine runs. The match was reduced to 40 overs per side due to a wet outfield and rain showers. South Africa managed to amass 249 runs in their quota of 40 overs, while team India could only score 240.



Sanju Samson scored an unbeaten 86 and kept his side in the hunt till the final over. Vice-captain Shreyas Iyer also showed some good signs of form as he managed to score a half-century.



The bowlers also played their part cleanly. Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi were amongst wickets. However, fielding was the most disappointing aspect of the game. The Indians were sloppy on the field. They created half chances which would have been taken on a normal day in business.



Keeping all the facts in mind, Shikhar Dhawan and co will turn up in the second ODI at JSCA International Stadium Complex, Ranchi on 9th October. This article will lead you through India vs South Africa 2nd ODI - Ranchi Weather Forecast and Pitch Report.

The JSCA International Stadium often assists batters more as compared to bowlers. The pacers may get some help early on, however, it will be one-way for the spinners as the match progresses due to slowness in the surface. Toss will be a key factor. Skipper winning the flip of the coin would love to bat first and put up a score for the opposition.

india-vs-south-africa-2nd-odi-ranchi-weather-forecast-and-pitch-report

India vs South Africa: India registered a fine series levelling when over South Africa in the second of the three-match India vs South Africa ODI series at the JSCA International Stadium. Some extraordinary batting performances from the home side helped them seal a convincing win in a highly intense game. 



The proteas meanwhile were let down this time, unlike the previous game where they managed to get all their strategies perfectly alright. A win by 7 wickets for India means that the third ODI will now be a highly significant one for both the teams to win in order to seal the three-match series hereon.



South Africa won the toss and elected to bat first with the intention of repeating their good performances with the bat just like in the first game. South Africa didn't have the perfect start as Quinton De Kock was dismissed for just 5 in the third over by Mohammed Siraj. 



Janeman Malan tried to stabilise the innings with some steady shots but he too was dismissed by Shahbaz Ahmed against the run of play with South Africa two down for 40. It was at this moment that Reeza Hendricks along with Aiden Markram who was in at no.4 started to take the attack on the opposition bowlers.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/10/India-vs-South-Africa-2nd-ODI-2-1024x576.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-95413" width="1043" height="587"/><figcaption>Indian players celebrating a wicket.</figcaption></figure>



The duo displayed superb resistance under tough circumstances to add 129 runs in as many balls. Both the batters smashed brilliant fifties to take the command during the middle overs. The partnership came to an end with Reeza Hendricks being dismissed for 74. Double strikes from the Indian bowlers in the 38th and 39th over saw South Africa lose Aiden Markam and Heinrich Klaasen each of whom was set batters at that time.&nbsp;



David Miller held one end firmly but it didn't help his side anyways because no other players managed to stand and score the much-important runs to provide the Proteas with a good finish. This led to South Africa to a total of 278/7 in 50 overs in the 2nd India vs South Africa ODI. 



India didn't have the perfect start to their run chase as they lost Shikhar Dhawan early once again. Shubman Gill who looked in fine rhythm was also sent back by Rabada with India's score under 50. However, what followed was absolute carnage by the Indian batters. Ishan Kishan along with Shreyas Iyer showed excellent abilities to handle the situation as they absolutely ran riot against the opposition bowlers.&nbsp;



The left-right combination never let the bowlers settle their line and lengths as the duo continued to pile on the runs and add to South Africa's misery in the 2nd India vs South Africa ODI. The batters had both smashed fantastic fifties and added on an incredible amount of 161 runs for the third wicket when Ishan Kishan was dismissed for 93 falling just 7 runs short of a well-deserved century.&nbsp;



However, Shreyas Iyer didn't stop as he went on to bring up his second ODI century as he finished with 113 not out of 111 balls. He found able support from Sanju Samson at the other end who scored a breezy 30. India, with this win will now be battling it out against the Proteas in the decider match (India vs South Africa 3rd ODI) at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arun_Jaitley_Stadium">Arun Jaitley stadium</a> on 11th October.

India vs South Africa 2nd ODI Match Report - Shreyas Iyer's century leads India to victory

india-vs-south-africa-2nd-odi-match-report-shreyas-iyers-century-leads-india-to-victory

India vs. South Africa, 3rd ODI: India will be facing South Africa in an epic series decider at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Both sides have won a game each, and thus the series is level at 1-1 currently. South Africa won the first match emphatically, while India made a strong comeback in the second match, winning it by 7 wickets. Both teams will have everything to play for in the third and final ODI of the series.?



<h2>India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: Preview and Playing XIs of both sides</h2>



<h3>South Africa</h3>



Preview: South Africa have been seemingly good so far in the series. The team has delivered a fair amount of quality performances in the two previous matches. The bowling department, however, has led the visitors down in the series so far. The bowlers failed to defend a 279-run total in the second ODI while they were marginally saved in the first ODI as India fell short of their target narrowly by just 9 runs.?



The batters however have been doing a good job putting up fighting totals and tormenting the home side regularly. The team will have to plan out its strategies properly in order to achieve its objectives in the crucial upcoming match.



Possible Playing XI: Janneman Malan, Quinton de Kock(wk), Temba Bavuma(c), Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Wayne Parnell, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anrich_Nortje">Anrich Nortje</a>, Tabraiz Shamsi.



<h3>India</h3>



Preview: India displayed a much more improved performance in the second match as they registered a thumping victory over the visitors. The batters did a fine job in particular of making a mockery of the run chase as they edged past the Proteas with ease. Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer showed heroics with the bat that led India to an easy win.?



The bowlers, however, need to settle the issues that have led to their conceding runs on a regular basis. The team will likely remain unchanged ahead of the big decider match and try out its in-form players to deliver quality performances for one last time in the series.



Possible Playing XI: Shikhar Dhawan(c), Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson(wk), Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Avesh Khan.

<h2>India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: Probable Top Performers&nbsp;</h2>



Probable best batsman of the match - Shreyas Iyer



India's No. 4 batsman, Shreyas Iyer has been in magical form with the bat recently. He smashed a fifty in the opening match of the series and followed it up with a magnificent century in the second game. The 28-year-old has displayed an excellent range of shots as he's totally dominated the opposition bowlers throughout the series until now.?



His attacking approach has been of great use for his side. Currently the top scorer in the series, Iyer will look to pile on more runs in the series decider tomorrow.



Probable best bowler of the match - Mohammed Siraj



Mohammed Siraj showed a brilliant performance with the ball in the previous game. His fine spell of bowling, wherein he picked up three crucial wickets while conceding just 38 runs, played a major role in India's win.?



His spell was significant since it helped India choke the opposition by bringing down their run rate and also jolting them with regular wickets. The pacer will be expected to deliver another quality spell of bowling in the series decider.



<h2>India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: Winning Prediction&nbsp;</h2>



Match prediction - India to win the match



Based on the current form of the majority of the players and the overall rhythm that the team is in currently, it seems highly possible for India to win the decider and seal the series 2-1.

Real Madrid vs Manchester City : Probable XI & Injured Stars Who WON’T Play Tonight

Riyan Parag Statement : Few months back, Riyan Parag’s search history went viral on social media, where some explicit searches related to Bollywood actresses Ananya Panday and Sara Ali Khan were revealed.
After staying silent for a long time, Riyan has finally come forward and given an official statement regarding the controversy. In today’s article, we will tell you everything about what he said in his clarification.
<h2 dir="ltr">Riyan Parag Youtube Search History</h2>
Riyan Parag is an Indian cricketer, well known in the T20 format. His performances are often so impressive that he frequently goes viral on social media. A while back, another piece of news about him had gone very viral which was his YouTube search history, showing that he had searched for "hot photos of Ananya Panday" and "hot photos of Sara Ali Khan."
<h2 dir="ltr">Riyan Parag Statement Over The Viral Video</h2>
During an interview with City 1016 Radio, Riyan was asked about this controversy. However, he did not give a direct answer. He explained that he had opened YouTube for something else, and his search history got exposed accidentally. 
He shared that after finishing an IPL match in Chennai, he immediately joined a Discord call with his streaming team. He was about to listen to a song but didn’t have Spotify or Apple Music, as he had deleted them.
So, he opened YouTube to search for music. That’s when he realized his search history had been leaked. At that moment, he didn’t fully understand what had happened, but after the stream ended, he was shocked, thinking about what he had done.
When asked why the Riyan Parag Statement did not come at that time, he said that he didn’t consider it a big deal. He felt there was no point in giving a public clarification because people would still not understand. He believed that ignoring the controversy was the best option. 
If he had responded back then, it would have only made the situation worse, and people would have judged him even more. That’s why he chose to stay silent and let the matter fade away on its own.

Riyan Parag Statement : Finally After Months Cricketer Riyan Parag Speaks On His Leaked Youtube Search History

The second match of the three-match ODI series between India and England was played on 9 February (Sunday) at Barabaati Stadium of Cuttack and in this game, the Indian Team secured an easy win by a margin of four wickets and took an unassailable lead of 2-0. Skipper Rohit Sharma played a fiery knock of 119 runs in 90 deliveries, which consisted of 12 fours and seven sixes. 
<h2>KL Rahul's below par performance with the bat continues</h2>
The return of Rohit Sharma to his explosive form was a good news for the Indian fans but wicketkeeper batter KL Rahul delivered yet another disappointing performance with the bat in this match as well. He returned to dugout after scoring just 10 runs and even in the previous match of the series, the 31-year-old managed to score just two runs. 
In both games, the former LSG skipper had a chance to apply the finishing touches but, he returned to the pavilion and failed to help the Men in Blue get over the line. 
Even in last year's Sri Lanka tour, Rahul wasn't able to do anything special with the bat, managing to score just 31 runs in two innings. Rishabh Pant replaced him in the side in the 3rd ODI. If we take a close look at his stats, then we get to know that Rahul has amassed just 43 runs in the last four One-Day International games at a miserable average of 10.75, which goes on to reflect his struggles in the format. 
Rahul's glove work was also poor in the Cuttack ODI as his mistake led to Joe Root getting a lifeline. On his advice, skipper Rohit Sharma decided not to take the DRS review versus Root but the replays later showed that the ball was hitting the stumps.
After watching the replays, skipper Rohit regretted the decision of not taking the DRS and was very pissed off with KL Rahul. A wicketkeeper's advice is very important in taking a call of DRS reviews for LBW. 
<h2>Will Pant get a chance to play in the 3rd ODI? </h2>
The question which arises here is, will the Indian team management carry on with KL Rahul as the main wicketkeeper in the 3rd &amp; Final ODI of the series in Ahmedabad? Wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant is a part of the squad as well and the 27-year-old is a better wicketkeeper than KL Rahul and also has a lot of experience of keeping the wickets on bouncy &amp; spinning tracks. 
The newly appointed LSG skipper has participated in 31 One-Day International matches for the Men in Blue, where he has managed to score 871 runs at a decent average of 33.50. He has also slammed five fifties and a century in the format. 
KL Rahul, on the other hand, has amassed 2,863 runs in 79 ODI games at an average of 47.71 with the help of seven hundreds and 18 fifties. While the statistics of the latter are better than the former, constant failures of the latter with the bat is increasing the tension of the Indian team management ahead of Champions Trophy 2025.The team management would definitely want to give an attacking batsman like Pant a chance to prove himself before the commencement of the Champions Trophy.

KL Rahul has not been in good form with the bat since the conclusion of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup and the Indian Team Management might just run out of patience with the 31-year-old if he doesn't perform on a consistent basis

IND vs ENG: KL Rahul's below par performance with the bat might force the Indian Team Management to go ahead with Rishabh Pant as the wicketkeeper batter in the 3rd ODI versus England in Ahmedabad. The 31-year-old has been in poor form with the bat since the conclusion of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023

Australian Women's National Cricket Team's experienced opening batter Beth Mooney has successfully won the ICC Women's Player of the Month award for January of 2025 thanks to her impressive performances during the Women's Ashesh 2025 series versus England
The left-handed batter saw off the competition from the duo of West Indian spinner Karishma Ramharack and Indian Cricket Team's U-19 star Trisha Gongdi to win the prestigious monthly accolade. 
This is also the first time in her career that Mooney has won the player of the month award and the second consecutive monthly award for an Aussie star after in-form all-round Annabel Sutherland won the award in December of 2024.
<blockquote>
"The Women's Aussie team has had incredible month of January, winning the Ashes in front of our home crowd was very special and culminating the series by taking part in the first ever Day &amp; Night Women's Test Match at the MCG in front of a large crowd is an unforgettable moment for the whole team. This team continues to perform well and deliver amazing results and I am very happy &amp; proud to be a part of such an amazing group," Mooney said.
</blockquote>
The opener started off the ODI series slowly but she bounced back in awesome fashion with a brilliant fifty in the third One-Day International in Hobart. After the Kangaroos lost four wickets for a mere score or 59 runs, the 31-year-old played an incredible knock of 50 runs in 64 deliveries to give the Heather Knight-led team a tough fight and set the stage for the hosts to post a score of 308 runs in 50 overs and secure the victory in the contest. 
In the T20 International series, Mooney carried on with her good form, scoring 213 runs at an amazing strike rate or 146.89 and cemented her position as the top-ranked batter. She scored 75 runs in 44 balls before going on to smash an unbeaten 94 runs off 63 deliveries in Adelaide, her highest score in the shortest format of the game in five years, to guide the Kangaroos to a dominant series victory versus their Fierce-Rivals.
She also won the Player-of-the-Match accolade for her incredible performances in both the first &amp; the last T20 International games of the series and she also ended the series as the highest run getter.
