India vs South Africa Live Cricket Score 2nd T20I: India lose wickets at regular intervals after Proteas captain Temba Bavuma opts to bowl.

Hello and welcome to the LIVE coverage of the second T20I between India and South Africa. Post the IPL razzmatazz, the focus shifted to international cricket, with Rishabh Pant making captaincy debut in KL Rahul's absence. He played just three matches for Rajasthan Royals but notched up his seventh T20 half-century, and even hit the winning boundary in his 46-ball innings. Having not lost a T20I series in India against the Men in Blue, they will be looking forward to adding another series win under their belt. India and South Africa have faced one another on 16 occasions. His thunderbolts rattled even the best of batting attacks in the IPL. But will he win rave reviews in India colours? For South Africa, Quinton de Kock remains key at the top. India are walking at the top when it comes to aggressive batting. It is going to skid through and not much for the spinners. India openers Ishan and Gaikwad also walk to the middle. Short from Kagiso Rabada... Ishan pulls it in the air but it falls short of the fielder. Just one more over to go in the powerplay. Runs have dried for India in the last five-six overs and couple of wickets have fallen too.
