IND Vs SA 2nd ODI LIVE: Shardul Thakur's Cameo Takes India To 287

IND Vs SA 2nd ODI: Keep refreshing this page for all the live updates and scores from India vs South Africa 2nd ODI.

Background

IND Vs SA: India are back into a do-or-die situation after losing the first ODI even after getting a decent start. This time, after winning the toss, India has chosen to bat first. They will try to put some runs on the board and put the pressure back on the Proteas. 

Both the teams have not made any changes. KL Rahul believes in the XI players that played in the last game, despite witnessing a shaky middle-order performance. 

The chase at Paarl seemed like a walk in the park for the visitors until South African bowlers removed Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan to put their opponents in a spot of bother.

The worst was yet to come for team India as they were left crumbling after losing Rishabh Pant, Venkatesh Iyer and Shreyas Iyer in quick succession. India tried very hard but never recovered after losing Dhawan (79) and Virat Kohli (51). 

The second match of the series will be a do-or-die match for India. If India wins, then they will be fighting for the series in the third ODI, but if not, it would be back-to-back series defeats for KL Rahul's men.
