After a dominant win in the 1st T20I, India would be geared to repeat a similar performance when they take on South Africa in the second match of the series, which would be played on Sunday, October 2. The Men in Blue were sensational with the ball as they broke the back of South Africa's batting in the intial overs before Keshav Maharaj (41) and Wayne Parnell's rescue act saw them finishing with 106/8 in the first innings. Arshdeep Singh, coming back after a break, was brilliant and showed just why he was so highly rated. Deepak Chahar was sensational up front as well as the two scalped five out of the eight wickets that fell. IND vs SA 2022: Match Tickets Sold Out for India’s 2nd T20I Against South Africa in Guwahati

KL Rahul's patient innings coupled with a blazing knock from Suryakumar Yadav's bat helped India go 2-0 up in the series. With the series on the line, South Africa would aim to bring their A game on Sunday in Guwahati. Their batting failed big time in the 1st match, something that led to their defeat but Temba Bavuma can be proud of his bowlers, who took the two early wickets of India captain Rohit Sharma and also Virat Kohli to peg the hosts back. Another win for India would mean a series win.  Given that they have a winning combination in place, one is unlikely to see any changes in the Indian line-up. South Africa on the other hand, can have some changes, especially in the batting department.
