India vs South Africa 2nd T20I Highlights: Varun Chakravarthy's five-wicket haul seemed to have put India in the driver's seat despite being restricted to a score of 124/6. However, Tristan Stubbs and Gerald Coetzee took pacers Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan to the cleaners in the death overs and powered South Africa to victory. South Africa have levelled the four-match series 1-1....Read More
Chakravarthy dismissed Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller off consecutive balls to complete his five-wicket haul in a spell that threw South Africa into disarray despite chasing only 125. Chakravarthy was backed up well by the rest of the Indian bowlers and it put the visitors in the driver's seat going into the death overs of the Proteas' innings.
South Africa were on the money after captain Aiden Markram won the toss and chose to bowl first and restricted India to a score of 124/6 in the second T20I in Gqeberha. India have since made a good start to defending the low target, with Arshdeep Singh and Varun Chakravarthy striking in the powerplay and the latter striking in the eighth over as well.
Hardik Pandya earlier tried to get going after a slow start but could only finish unbeaten on Marco Jansen started with wicket-maiden and the Proteas went on to take three wickets in the powerplay, including that of India captain Suryakumar Yadav. India went on to lose half their side before reaching 75 by the time the 12th over came around.
India vs South Africa LIVE: South Africa beat India by three wickets!
India vs South Africa LIVE: Tristan Stubbs hits the winning runs and South Africa have levelled the series 1-1! He pulls the last ball of the 19th from Arshdeep to the square leg fence and that is that. It is a sell-out crowd here and they are a cock-a-hoop. The bands are making a din, the stands are bouncing. South Africa looked on top in the first innings, and they looked down and out when Chakravarthy dismissed Klaasen and Miller off consecutive balls. And then they turned it around again. Sets us up nicely for the third T20I that will be played in Centurion on Wednesday.
India vs South Africa LIVE: BACK TO BACK FOURS! SA need just 5 to win now
India vs South Africa LIVE: Wow, this stand has wiped India off the plate here after that Chakravarthy spell. Stubbs clobbers the first ball in front of square for a four, and then drives the second ball away from his body, it takes an edge and runs behind to the boundary again!
South Africa need 5 to win off 10!
India vs South Africa LIVE: South Africa need 13 to win off the last two overs!
India vs South Africa LIVE: Coetzee with back to back fours off the first two balls of the 18th over bowled by Avesh Khan. He muscles the first ball down the ground and then sends the second over cover. Four more runs in that over and that makes it 12 in it. Arshdeep returns for the 19th, it looks like Axar is not bowling at all today. Is that a mistake from India?
Stubbs is on strike, he has scored 31 in 35 in a valuable innings here.
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 112/7 in 18 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: 12 runs in the 17th over! 100 up for South Africa

India vs South Africa LIVE: Arshdeep to bowl the 17th
India vs South Africa LIVE: South Africa need 37 to win off the last 24 balls now. This is no longer a small run chase, scoring at the rate that South Africa are required to at the moment is quite a task on this pitch. Interestingly, Suryakumar is not bringing in Axar Patel, it is Arshdeep Singh who will bowl the 17th over.
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 88/7 in 16 overs, need 37 to win from 24 balls
India vs South Africa LIVE: GONE! Bishnoi strikes now, SA down to their last three wickets
India vs South Africa LIVE: Big slog sweep from Simelane and he misses the wrong 'un completely. It had been 13 balls since the last boundary and so this was a bit of a release shot. But the smalls sneaks through the gate and takes Simelane's stumps. South Africa down to their last three wickets now.
Simelane b Ravi Bishnoi 7 (10)
IND vs SA Live Score: SA 86/7 in 15.4 overs, need 39 to win from 26
India vs South Africa LIVE: Into the last five overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: If you thought that this would be a walk in the park for South Africa, think again. As many as three wides from Hardik Pandya in the 15th over makes it nine runs off it but no boundaries. Stubbs is on 23 off 29 balls, Simelane on six off seven balls.
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 84/6 in 15 overs, need 41 to win from 30 balls
India vs South Africa LIVE: Stubbs ends 3-over boundary drought

India vs South Africa LIVE: OUT! MILLER GONE NEXT BALL, 5 FOR CHAKRAVARTHY!
India vs South Africa LIVE: Varun Chakravarthy has thrown South Africa into disarray here. He goes around the wicket for Miller, gets the ball to drift in and it beats the batter, takes the stumps. Varun Chakravarthy's maiden international five-wicket haul. He had been out of the team for three years before this series and what a comeback he has made here.
Miller b Chakravarthy 0 (1)
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 66/6 in 12.2 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: OUT! CHAKRAVARTHY GETS KLAASEN AGAIN!

Klaasen c Arshdeep b Varun 2 (3)
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 66/5 in 12.1 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: GONE! Wicket No.3 for Varun Chakravarthy!
India vs South Africa LIVE: And there goes Jansen! Length delivery and it is a goognly fifth ball of the 11th, Janse does something of a half heave through thin air as the ball sneaks between his bat and body and takes the stumps.
Jansen b Chakravarthy 7 (10)
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 65/4 in 11 overs, need 60 to win in 54 balls
India vs South Africa LIVE: 10 runs in the 9th over!
India vs South Africa LIVE: In a low-scoring chase such as this one, overs like these are gold dust for the batting side. Ravi Bishnoi bowls for the first time in the ninth over, Jansen gets off strike with a leg bye off the second ball and then Bishnoi fires the third ball wide down the leg side. Samson does well to stop that from running behind in fact. The batters run three off the next two balls and then Jansen pulls the fifth ball to deep backward square leg for a four. He then runs a leg bye last ball, Jansen is on five off six, Stubbs on seven off eight balls.
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 55/3 in 9 overs, need 70 to win from 66 bal
India vs South Africa LIVE: OUT! Hendricks castled by Varun!
India vs South Africa LIVE: Pitches up the third delivery of the eighth and Hendricks hits a four, then he sends in a googly and Hendricks is gone. The delivery kept drifting in, Hendricks played for a turn that wasn't there and the ball takes his stumps. Well, well, well, India are making South Africa sweat here.
Hendricks b Varun 24 (21)
South Africa 44/3 in 7.4 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: Powerplay ends, South Africa 34/2 in 6 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: Well India haven't allowed South Africa to get away really. Reeze Hendricks has scored 17 off 15, Tristan Stubbs at the other end on one off two. Now while South Africa did take three wickets in the powerplay, the real damage was done in the middle overs when they didn't allow the batters to hit a boundary for more than five overs.
India vs South Africa LIVE: GONE! Instant impact from Chakravarthy once again
India vs South Africa LIVE: Markram gone without troubling the scorers too much once again. Chakravarthy bowling the last over of the powerplay and he strikes very early in his spell once again. He drifts the second ball in from wide of the crease and beats Markram's big slog with the googly. The stumps are rattled.
Markram b Varun 3 (8)
South Africa 33/2 in 5.2 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: OUT! Arshdeep strikes in his 2nd over
India vs South Africa LIVE: There is the early wicket that Arshdeep takes almost all the time. Slower delivery from Arshdeep fifth ball of the third, Rickleton with a big heave across the line. He ends up picking out Rinku Singh at deep backward square.
Rickelton c Singh b Arshdeep Singh 13 (11)
IND vs SA Live Score: South Africa 22/1 in 2.5 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: 9 runs in the 2nd!
India vs South Africa LIVE: Hendricks pulls Avesh in front of square third ball and then the last ball is edged between slip and short third. Avesh left frustrated a little bit there and South Africa have got off to a very good start in this chase. Hendricks on eight off five, Rickelton on eight off seven.
South Africa 16/0 in 2 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: Seven runs in the first over
India vs South Africa LIVE: Three dot balls to start off with and then Rickelton slaps the fourth ball past cover for four. The batters then run three off the last ball.
India vs South Africa LIVE: Now for the South African chase…
India vs South Africa LIVE: Reeza Hendricks brought back into the squad and taking his place at the top of the order ahead of Aiden Markram, He has Ryan Rickleton at the other end ready to face Arshdeep Singh.
India vs South Africa LIVE: Will the Indian bowlers do what the Proteas did?
India vs South Africa LIVE: What troubled the batters against the pacers in the powerplay was the movement Jansen, Coetze and Simelane got off the seam. Now if the Indians manage to do the same, they can make this seemingly measly chase quite difficult for South Africa.
India vs South Africa LIVE: India 124/6 in 20 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: Pandya manages to get a boundary off the last ball of that over and that takes India's score just above a run a ball. He finishes unbeaten on 39 off 45 balls, Arshdeep at the other end on seven off six. Jansen finishes with figures of 1/25. South Africa need 125 to level the series.
India vs South Africa LIVE: Just three runs in the 19th!
India vs South Africa LIVE: Not the way Pandya hoped this would go. Arshdeep manages to get off strike second ball. He then tells Arshdeep to enjoy the show from the non-striker's end but he is unable to get a single run for himself after that. The only ones that do come are from a wide off the fourth ball and a bye that the batters run off the last. Jansen to bowl the 20th now. Pandya has scored just 33 runs in 39 balls!
IND vs SA Live Score: India 118/6 in 19 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: 14 runs in the 18th! Pandya gets going at last
India vs South Africa LIVE: The only problem at the end of all that is that Arshdeep Singh will be on strike for the first ball of the 19th over. The first ball from Jansen was short of a length, Pandya powerfully punches it past cover for a four. He hits the next ball straight to deep midwicket and turned down the single. Hardik then gets under the third ball and sends it soaring over cover for a six. The next two balls are dots and then Pandya ramps the last ball to the boundary. He moves to 33 off 35, Arshdeep on six off four.
IND vs SA Live Score: India 115/6 in 18 overs
India vs South Africa LIVE: Into the last three overs of the innings now...
India vs South Africa LIVE: Three wides in that 17th over from Coetzee and then Pandya smashes a yorker length delivery fifth ball for four. He takes a single next ball and keeps strike. Pandya has scored just 19 runs in 29 balls and he would be looking to explode now. Jansen to bowl the 18th, and presumably 20th.
IND vs SA Live Score: India 101/6 in 17 overs
India vs South Africa 2nd T20I LIVE Score: SIX! Arshdeep with India's first boundary in 35 balls
India vs South Africa 2nd T20I LIVE Score: Arshdeep dents Peter's figures with his last ball of the match. He shuffles accross the pitch and wallops it square leg side for a six. First boundary since the 10th over for India.
