IND vs SA T20 World Cup 2022: What happened the last time India and South Africa met in a T20I?

The Men in Blue and South Africa last met in a T20I as recently as October 4 in the third game of the three-match series in India. It was a dead rubber as the hosts had already clinched the series by winning the first two matches. However, the Proteas came up with a clinical performance to register a comprehensive 49-run win.

India bowled first after winning the toss. South Africa lost their out-of-form skipper Temba Bavuma cheaply. Umesh Yadav dismissed him for three off eight balls. However, Rilee Rossouw (100* off 48) and Quinton de Kock (68 off 43) featured in a superb 90-run second-wicket stand to lift the visitors.

The partnership was broken when De Kock was run-out at the start of the 13th over. The keeper-batter struck six fours and four sixes in his half-century. Rossouw, on the other hand, returned unconquered, having hit seven fours and eight sixes. Tristan Stubbs contributed 23 off 18, while David Miller slammed an unbeaten 19 off 5 as South Africa posted a mammoth 227/3.
