IND vs SA Live Score 2nd T20: Rahul, Rohit light up Guwahati with ... (Hindustan Times)

India vs South Africa 2nd T20 Live Score: KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma stitch 50-plus partnership as South Africa win toss and invite India to bat first.

Rohit Sharma skipped the practice sessions and was also reported to land in Guwahati on Saturday evening and not with the rest of the team on Thursday. A T20I match between India and Sri Lanka back at this venue in early 2020 had to be abandoned due to poor playing conditions. If that is the case then fans might get to watch a truncated contest. If we look at the performance in bilateral series, India have a terrific record. Latest weather report from Guwahati: There is a cloud cover but doesn't look like it will rain. We got solid batting line-up and it will be a challenge upfront.” Lungi Ngidi drops his length and bowls it bit slow as Rohit Sharma charges down the track. Parnell comes in to bowl his second over and KL Rahul welcomes him with a KLassic shot. Rohit Sharma whacks Keshav Maharaj for a boundary towards the mid-wicket region. Not kidding but there's a snake on the field. Rohit Sharma departs after scoring 43(37). Catch the LIVE updates of IND vs SA 2nd T20I:

South Africa bowl first against unchanged India; Ngidi replaces ... (ESPNcricinfo.com)

In front of a sold-out Guwahati crowd at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, South Africa captain Temba Bavuma won the toss and, expectedly, chose to bowl against ...

He stayed unbeaten on 69 in 48 balls, a useful innings to break his run of poor scores, but had his strokeplay been as smooth as Miller's, perhaps South Africa could've even won the game despite their horrid start. Deepak Chahar - the pick of the India bowlers with 0 for 24 - kept him quiet, and once he realised that Miller could cause more damage, he went to play second fiddle. For the second game in a row, both Temba Bavuma and Rilee Rossouw were out for ducks, with Arshdeep Singh yet again taking two wickets in his first over. Both Kohli and Suryakumar were fresh at the crease, and South Africa had the opportunity to bring the scoring rate down. In all, he clubbed eight fours and seven sixes to reach his first fifty in 25 balls and his next fifty runs came in 21 balls. Even though Maharaj had Rahul lbw next over, the 12th, India were going at a run-rate of a shade under 10, and that meant he had done his bit in their pursuit for 200+. However, Kohli hammered Anrich Nortje for back-to-back fours and then Karthik, in his seven-ball 17, played with Rabada's plans by moving across to the off side early and then dragging wide deliveries over the leg side in an 18-run final over. Kohli was left unbeaten on 49, starved for strike in the final over with Karthik finding the boundaries and India finishing on 237 for 3. And off the next eight overs of pace bowling, the two batters - and briefly Karthik - pummelled 124. The difference between the two sides ended up being the solid opening partnership that India had, one which South Africa failed to reproduce for the second game in a row. He nearly dragged South Africa over the line, dominating an unbeaten partnership of 174 with [Quinton de Kock](https://www.espncricinfo.com/player/quinton-de-kock-379143). If the first T20I in Thiruvananthapuram was a tantalising contest between bat and ball, the second T20I in Guwahati turned out to be the polar opposite.

The penultimate game was brought to a halt by a snake in Guwahati while India were going through their first-innings batting effort.

The men at the helm of affairs ensured the reptile was taken off the ground with safety equipments, including a bucket, before the players took a sigh of relief and the play was allowed to resume. The incident resulted in a small pause to the proceedings before the snake was caught and taken off the ground, ensuring safety of all the players involved before the play resumed.

Because the truth is worth it.) The Proteas, who lost the first match by eight wickets, made one change to their playing XI with Lungi Ngidi replacing Tabraiz Shamsi. The Maharashtra-born batter was supported brilliantly by Virat Kohli, who missed out on what could have been his 34th T20I half-century by only one run, remaining not out on 49 runs. Yadav accumulated 61 runs in only 22 deliveries, courtesy of his five sixes and as many fours However, that did not have any influence whatsoever on the scoring rate, thanks to a scintillating knock from Suryakumar Yadav. Rahul's form comes as a massive relief for the Indian camp ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022.

FOUR! Having been bowled out for a paltry score on Wednesday, South Africa must believe that there is no way but up. As the lone left-arm pacer in the World Cup squad, Arshdeep is all but guaranteed to feature extensively in Australia. Left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh did his reputation a world of good with a stellar show in the first T20I. Siraj, who joined the team at training here, last played a T20I in February. Bumrah’s absence opens the door for his replacement, Mohammed Siraj, to make an impact. David Miller needs 32 runs to become the leading run-scorer for South Africa in T20Is. The last T20I in Guwahati was washed out in January 2020. Rahul gets a boundary first ball of the match. Good slower ball next up and Rohit flicks this to mid-on as the ball stops on Rohit. A bit of extra bounce this time and Rahul awkwardly rides the bounce and guides it to third-man for a single. Kohli comes in and fends one that keeps low to end the over.

This was no top edge, this was no mishit, this was a shot from the middle of the bat. On crease was Mr 360 who was changing the rules of the game. Shastri kept repeating ‘unbelievable’ – speaking for the cricketing world that was in a state of disbelief. He got a full toss on the hips and Surya, like only he can, used those magical wrists of his. Traditionally, in India, it has been a good old stadium dog that was in the habit of making its presence felt on D-Day. [Rohit Sharma](https://indianexpress.com/about/rohit-sharma/) is hurt on the finger and pain could be felt in the Indian dug-out. A full ball, slightly towards the leg-side, got a booster dose from Surya’s bat. On the central square, Rohit had company, his opening partner [KL Rahul](https://indianexpress.com/about/kl-rahul/), umpires and the team physio. In the final over it was 37. With about 7 overs to go in the chase, the two had to score close to 18 runs – three sixes – per over to win for South Africa. Being senior members of their IPL sides, they have been part of team core groups that have hatched plans against all the regulars of the Indians team. They are friends with most in the Indian team – they have shared dressing rooms and team hotels with them.

IND vs SA, 2nd T20I as it happened: Miller scores stunning century ... (Scroll.in)

Recap of the second T20 International between India and South Africa in Guwahati.

India 6/0 after 1 over: Rahul with a punchy start to the night, four through the offside. India 21/0 after 3 overs: Rohit plays out five dot balls in Ngidi’s over either side of a six that wasn’t the most convincing shot either. India 36/0 after 4 overs: Rahul with a flick six that he is playing increasingly more frequently. A four and six (some pull shot!) by Rahul to start the over and two fours for Rohit to finish the over. Rohit is in a better rhythm now, takes on the spinner with the conventional sweep and gets a four. India 194/2 after 17 overs: Kohli joins the part in Parnell’s over. First a flick of wrists for six, then a lofted straight shot, then a four and six behind the wicket to finish the over. India 209/2 after 18 overs: It is probably the humidity but South Africa have struggled with their lengths... South Africa 45/2 after 6 overs: Markram ups the ante. South Africa 156/3 after 16 overs: The task facing SA is such that a 13-run over by Harshal Patel is under par at the moment. South Africa 102/3 after 12 overs: Miller big six off Ashwin in the third delivery. South Africa 175/3 after 18 overs: This match, perhaps not so much of a concern, but Harshal continues to be expensive in the death overs.

India vs South Africa, 2nd T20I - Best Memes from the game (CricTracker)

India registered a 16-run win in a high-scoring encounter against South Africa in the second T20I in Assam despite a whirlwind century from David Miller.

But it was the seasoned pair of Quinton de Kock and David Miller that staged a fightback for South Africa with a crucial partnership. Miller scored a 46-ball century and it happened to be the second one of his T20I career. In reply, it was indeed a mountain to climb for South Africa as they lost the wickets of skipper Temba Bavuma and Rilee Rossouw wthout many on the board. For South Africa, only Keshav Maharaj (2/23) could create an impact with the ball. With Suryakumar going berserk from one end, Virat played a supporting knock to perfection and allowed the former to do the most of scoring. Despite being put into bat first after the toss did not go in their favour, the hosts made sure that they had more than enough runs on the board to make South Africa give a run for their money.

Talking points from India vs South Africa 2nd T20I in Guwahati (DailyO)

Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati turned out to be another batting paradise as 458 runs were scored on Sunday (October 2). David Miller's stunning unbeaten ton ...

The groundsmen then came and captured it in a bucket. Miller also became the leading run-scorer for South Africa in the T20I format. The openers added 57 runs in the PowerPlay and had a 96-run stand to set the tone of the match. During India's innings, a snake came out of nowhere from a small unnoticed pit at the extra cover region. But the South African pacers in particular looked completely ineffective as Rahul and Yadav toyed with them. Rahul was adjudged player of the match for his knock.
