South Africa slammed 249/4 in 40 overs batting first with David Miller and Henrich Klassen scoring 75 not out and 74 not out respectively. Quinton de Kock scored 48. In reply, the Indian top order collapsed to 51/4 before Shreyas Iyer and Sanju Samson steadied the innings. Iyer’s 37-ball 50 and Sanju Samson’s 63-ball 86 not out eventually took India within touching distance but they could not cross the finishing line. Shardul Thakur contributed 33 with the bat. Meanwhile, all-rounder Washington Sundar has replaced pacer Deepak Chahar in the India squad. Chahar missed the first ODI due to a stiff back and was subsequently ruled out of the series.
