2nd T20I Stats: Yuzvendra Chahal, Rohit Sharma create unwanted records

A rain-truncated game affected India's momentum severely, as South Africa managed to break their winless streak with a victory to keep the series alive. JP Duminy smashed Jaydev Unadkat for a six to drag the series to Cape Town after a hapless Indian bowling performance failed to defend a competitive 189, built on the heroics of Manish Pandey and MS Dhoni.

Here are all the numbers from the second T20I:

0 - It was only the second instance when zero runs were scored in the first over of an Indian innings in a T20I. Shikhar Dhawan played out a maiden off Chris Morris.

The first time this happened was when KL Rahul faced Tendai Chatara during India's tour of Zimbabwe in 2016.

1 - MS Dhoni's fifty off 27 balls is the joint-fastest by an Indian batsman against South Africa in T20Is. Shikhar Dhawan scored a fifty off the same number of deliveries in the opening T20I of the series.

2 - MS Dhoni scored the second highest numbers of runs by an Indian batsman in the last two overs of a T20I innings.

Here's the complete list:

44 (10) Yuvraj Singh vs England, 2007

28 (9) MS Dhoni vs South Africa, Today

26 (9) Virat Kohli vs West Indies, 2016

24 (9) Rohit Sharma vs Pakistan, 2007

21 (9) MS Dhoni vs New Zealand, 2017

3 - Dhoni is now third on the list of most sixes by a wicketkeeper in T20Is. Here's the complete list:

68 - Mohammad Shahzad

58 - Brendon McCullum

44 - MS Dhoni

43 - Jos Buttler

3 - Heinrich Klaasen's name is now third on the list of fastest fifties by a South African in T20Is. AB de Villiers and Quinton de Kock scored a fifty off 21 balls against England in 2016. It is the fastest fifty by a South African against India in T20Is, bettering Morne Van Wyk's 24-ball fifty in 2011.

4 - The partnership between MS Dhoni and Manish Pandey was the fourth highest fifth-wicket partnership in T20Is.

Manish Pandey and MS Dhoni steered India to a competitive score

Here's the complete list:

119*- Shoaib Malik and Misbah-ul-Haq for Pakistan (vs AUS, 2007)

102* - Yuvraj Singh and MS Dhoni for India (vs AUS, 2013)

102 - Paul Collingwood and Owais Shah for England (vs NZ, 2008)

98* - MS Dhoni and Manish Pandey for India (vs SA, 2018)

4 - A rather unwanted record for Rohit Sharma: He now has the most ducks by a batsman for India in T20Is.

Sharma got out to Junior Dala once again

Here's the list:

4 - Rohit Sharma

3 - Ashish Nehra, Yusuf Pathan

5 - This was the fifth instance when both wicketkeepers scored a 50+ score in the same T20I game.

Brendon McCullum - Jos Buttler, Hamilton, 2013

Dinesh Ramdin - Luke Ronchi, Wellington, 2014

Jos Buttler - AB de Villiers, Johannesburg, 2016

Mohammad Shahzad - Gary Wilson, Greater Noida, 2017

MS Dhoni - Heinrich Klaasen, Centurion, 2018

7 Yuzvendra Chahal v SA, Today

6 Ravindra Jadeja v Australia, 2009

5 Stuart Binny v West Indies, 2016

5 Ravindra Jadeja v West Indies, 2017

5 Yuzvendra Chahal v Sri Lanka, 2017

10 - JP Duminy is now joint with AB de Villiers for most fifties by a South African in T20Is. Faf du Plessis has scored eight fifties, while Hashim Amla has seven to his name.

62 - The number of sixes hit by Duminy in T20Is, the most for South Africa, going past AB de Villiers' tally of 60.

64 - Yuzvendra Chahal conceded the most runs by an Indian in a T20I match. The previous highest was 57, by Joginder Sharma against England at Durban in 2007.

He now has the best figures by an Indian in T20Is (6-25 against England, 2017), as well as the worst.
