India and South Africa are set to take part in the second game of the three-match T20I series on Sunday, December 10. The St George's Park in Gqeberha will host the clash.
The first T20I on Sunday had to be called off without a ball being bowled. The upcoming game hence becomes crucial in terms of winning the series.
India have a strong squad at their disposal in the series. Yashasvi Jaiswal became only the third Indian batter to score a T20I half-century in the powerplay. He achieved the feat in the series against the Aussies and is in brilliant form.
Suryakumar Yadav is 15 runs short of becoming the joint-fastest Indian batter to score 2000 runs in T20Is. Shubman Gill scored a hundred against New Zealand earlier this year and he has been in stupendous touch as well.
South Africa would be looking to start their preparations for the T20 World Cup on a decent note. They would not have the services of Lungi Ngidi as he was ruled out of the series owing to an injury. The onus will be on the likes of Aiden Markram and David Miller to deliver.
