India vs South Africa, 2nd T20I in Centurion, latest update: Behardien pulls the ball towards the leg side for a double, with keeper Dhoni trying to slap the ball onto the striker’s stumps in vain. ide off the next, with Behardien setting off for a single off the second legal delivery.

South Africa win by six wickets, as the series heads to a decider at Cape Town! Preview: After a comprehensive victory in the first Twenty20 International, India will aim to seal the three-match series when they take on South Africa in the second match here at the SuperSport Park on Wednesday. In the first game, a brilliant all-round show helped visitors beat hosts South Africa by 28 runs at the New Wanderers Stadium. Put in to bat, Shikhar Dhawan (72) hammered the South African bowlers all around the park and helped India post a massive 203/5 before pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar (5/24) wreaked havoc in the South African batting line-up to take a crucial 1-0 lead. The Virat Kohli-led India will hope to repeat the performance but with middle-order batsmen also playing their part this time. In the last match, Manish Pandey, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Hardik Pandya failed to provide the expected final flourish. Pandey struggled to score big, scoring 29 not out in 27 deliveries. It will be interesting to see whether the Karnataka right-hander gets another chance. [caption id=“attachment_4356705” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Virat Kohli and JP Duminy. Reuters[/caption] Bolstered by terrific spell by Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who was adjudged the Man of the Match, India will hope to create havoc once again to seal the issue. In the batting department, alongside skipper Kohli, batsmen Rohit Sharma, Dhawan, Dhoni and Pandya will look to make the most of their capabilities this time also. Batsman Suresh Raina, who made a comeback in the T20Is will act as an vital cog in the middle-order and will look to prove his mettle after his seven balls 15 runs in the first match. The bowling department, which looked lethal with wrist-spinning duo Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav, will try to make a mark in the shortest format. Pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar Kumar will only add depth to the formidable Indian bowling line-up. However, the Proteas, led by Jean-Pau Duminy, in the absence of Faf du Plessis, will look to hit back at India in the second game, especially after a 1-5 thrashing in the One-Day Internationals (ODIs). Reeza Hendricks was the only one who defied the Indian bowling in the first innings. But middle-order batsman David Miller and Chris Morris, who failed to click in the first match, have to pull up their socks this time to support the lower order which failed drastically. Expectations will be high on Heinrich Klaasen and Farhaan Behardien. The bowling department, featuring Andile Phehlukwayo, Dane Paterson, Morris along with chinaman Tabraiz Shamsi will have to come up with something special in order to get rid of the flamboyant Indian batsmen. Squads: India squad: Virat Kohli (captain), Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Lokesh Rahul, Suresh Raina, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Manish Pandey, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, Jaydev Unadkat, Shardul Thakur. South Africa: Jean-Paul Duminy (captain), Farhaan Behardien, Junior Dala, AB de Villiers, Reeza Hendricks, Christiaan Jonker, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), David Miller, Chris Morris, Dane Paterson, Aaron Phangiso, Andile Phehlukwayo, Tabraiz Shamsi, Jon-Jon Smuts.

Heinrich Klaasen wins the Man of the Match for his destructive 30-ball 69!
Klaasen: Pretty special, especially at my home ground, something I didn’t dream of as a young kid. (On reverse sweeps) I won’t say its a keeper thing, but you got to put the bowler under pressure, and show your skills. I feel comfortably with the way my game is right now. Im enjoying my cricket for a year and a half now.

Bhuvneshwar returns to the attack. Duminy collects a double off the first ball, before bringing Behardien back on strike with a single off the next delivery. Duminy guides the ball down the ground for a double off the fourth delivery. Dot off a bouncer off the penultimate delivery, with the SA captain collecting a single off the last ball. Seven off the over. The hosts need 26 off the last three overs.
After 16 overs,South Africa 156/4 ( JP Duminy (C) 40 , Farhaan Behardien 8)
Chahal is brought back for his final over, and Duminy starts off by smacking the ball through the extra-cover region for a boundary. Stumping chance missed off the next ball as Duminy shuffles down the pitch, with Dhoni fumbling with the ball after it brushes past the batsman’s thigh. Behardien gets on strike for the first time, and smacks the ball beyond midwicket for a six off just his second delivery. DROPPED! Behardien lobs the ball in the direction of the bowler, with the ball passing through his hands, and allowing the batsman a double. 13 off the over, as Chahal signs off with figures of 0/64.
India went to South Africa hoping to develop that rare breed; a batting all-rounder who bowls seam-up. Pandya's batting may not have grown as much as hoped but he has taken serious strides as a bowler.

After 15 overs,South Africa 142/4 ( JP Duminy (C) 36 , Farhaan Behardien 0)
Pandya is brought back for his final over, and keeps it relatively quiet for the first four deliveries, giving away five runs. Miller goes for a hook off a short ball, and ends up top-edging it in the direction of Thakur at fine-leg. Duminy collects a single off the last ball. Six runs and a wicket off the over, as Pandya signs off with figures of 1/31.
OUT! Miller tries to go big off a back-of-length delivery, and ends up miscuing it to Thakur at fine-leg! That’s another big-hitter sent back in no time! SA 141/4

After 14 overs,South Africa 136/3 ( JP Duminy (C) 33 , David Miller 2)
Unadkat returns to the attack, and delivers straightaway as he gets Klaasen caught behind off the very first delivery of the over. The left-arm pacer keeps it tight in the remainder of the over, giving away just five runs. Fine over from Unadkat against the run of play.
OUT! Unadkat finally gets the man, as Klaasen’s destructive knock comes to an end! Gets an edge that carries all the way to the keeper! Animated celebrations from the keeper follow, with the Indians deriving some hope from the big wicket. SA 131/3
Klaasen c Dhoni b Unadkat 69(30)
After 13 overs,South Africa 131/2 ( JP Duminy (C) 31 , Heinrich Klaasen (W) 69)
23 runs conceded by Chahal off his third over — it’s almost as if Klaasen and Duminy are punishing him for all the torment that he and Kuldeep had caused in the ODI series. Klaasen smashes back-to-back sixes off the first two balls, before reverse-paddling the next ball over short third man for a four. Duminy joins the act with a slog over the midwicket fence for his first six.
