India vs South Africa Highlights, 2nd ODI IND vs SA: Although there was a wobble towards the end, Corbin Bosch was the one who stood tall for South Africa. He scored 26 runs off 15 deliveries and ensured that the visitors chased down the target with four wickets in hand and levelled the series.

India had a great chance to make a comeback, but Corbin Bosch showed great determination. Even with de Zorzi walking off, Bosch did not lose focus. He stayed strong and kept going taking the visitors ever so close to the huge target.

After the fall of Brevis, de Zorzi joined Breetzke in the middle. The duo kept founding the boundaries at the right moments and taking the match away from India. However, Prasidh Krishna picked up the wicket of Breetzke in the 43rd over and kept the hosts in the contest. This was followed by the fall of Marco Jansen. India were in with a big chance at the stage.

Dewald Brevis and Matthew Breetzke changed the momentum of the game with a 92-run partnership off just 64 deliveries. Kuldeep Yadav picked up the wicket of Brevis to give India a chance make a comeback in the match.

Markram scored a well-earned century, holding the innings together alongside steady support from the other end as South Africa kept pressing in their steep chase. After India’s early review failed, Markram seized the moment, taking advantage of Harshit Rana's loose deliveries in South Africa’s pursuit of 359.

India finished on a commanding 358/5, courtesy brilliant centuries from Virat Kohli (102) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (105), with KL Rahul’s unbeaten 66 providing a late flourish to the total. Kohli departed visibly frustrated after his 102, leaving Rahul to carry the innings forward. His 53rd ODI century, second in as many games, had put South Africa on the back foot as he dominated the crease with authority.

Earlier, Ruturaj Gaikwad had set the tone with a fluent maiden ODI century, reaching 100 off just 77 balls with precise timing and composure. The duo shared a massive 195-run partnership for the third wicket, firmly establishing India’s dominance.

After his fifty, Gaikwad shifted gears, unleashing a series of attacking strokes, while Kohli remained composed at the other end, enjoying the rhythm and momentum as India surged ahead with control.

Earlier, Kohli brought up his third consecutive fifty, drawing an appreciative applause from head coach Gautam Gambhir in the dugout. Ruturaj Gaikwad has provided strong support at the other end, remaining unbeaten after reaching his own half-century. Earlier, Yashasvi Jaiswal failed to build on a promising start, dismissed for 22 under mounting pressure to leave India on shaky ground.

Despite the wobble, Kohli has held firm, anchoring the innings and steering the rebuild. Rohit Sharma, who looked threatening after cracking three consecutive boundaries, fell for 14 in the same over as Nandre Burger hit back to remove the Indian captain.

Put in to bat once again after KL Rahul lost yet another toss, India fielded an unchanged XI, while South Africa bolstered their lineup with the returns of Temba Bavuma, Lungi Ngidi, and Keshav Maharaj.
