#4 Proteas' middle-order comes to a cropper
With senior players, AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis ruled out, the onus was on South Africa's unstable middle-order to contribute. JP Duminy and David Miller had barely shown the class and composure to hold themselves together in the ODI line-up and once again came under scrutiny.
While Miller appeared completely befuddled like in the first ODI and departed for a duck. Duminy and Khaya Zondo, on debut, hung around for a while but could not quite resurrect the waning Proteas innings. The wrist spinners ran havoc as South Africa collapsed rather meekly.
