Team India Beat South Africa In 2nd T20: The match played between Team India and South Africa at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati was very memorable for India. The team defeated South Africa for the first time in their home T20 series by winning this match. Even after this historic victory of the team, captain Rohit Sharma talked about improving the game further. He also told about the frequent mistakes being made by the team. Let us tell you that a total of 458 runs were scored in this match and only six wickets fell.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma has asked the bowlers to improve their game even after the series win. The Indian team once again missed Jasprit Bumrah as Africa scored 46 runs in the last two overs. After the match, Rohit said, 'Obviously Jasprit Bumrah's injury is a matter of concern for us. We need to focus on bowling the last overs. We haven't bowled well at death in the last five or six matches. It is very difficult to bowl and bat in the death overs. This is where the match is decided. This is one aspect where we have to face challenges.'
Batting first, India restricted Africa to 216 for three after scoring 237 for three on the basis of Suryakumar Yadav's 22-ball 61 and Rahul's 28-ball 57. When asked about Suryakumar Yadav, he laughed and said in a joking tone, 'Looking at his batting rhythm, we are thinking that now he should be fielded on 23 October itself.' The Indian team has to start its campaign against Pakistan on 23 October in the T20 World Cup.
