India vs South Africa second one day cricket match

 Yesterday was the match between South Africa and India.


India was batting first. 


Openers Gaikwad started his batting with a boundary. 


But in the next ball itself, he is  out.   India were 4 / 1.


India had lost its one more wicket in the form of Tilak.


India had reached 50 runs at the end of 12 overs for the loss of 2 wickets. 


Remaining opening batsman Sudarshan had completed 50 runs in the pitch which is not helpful for batting. 


A much needed partnership of 50 runs was built by Sudarshan and Rahul.


With that India crossed 100 runs in 24 overs.


Sudarshan got out after scoring 62 runs .


Rahul has scored 50 runs and going strong.


With that India passed 150 run mark also for loss of 4 wickets.


Suddenly there was a batting collapse. 


India was 171 runs for loss of 7 wickets in 39  overs. 


The pitch is not batting friendly. 


Difficult for India to score 200 runs also as only 3 wickets were remaining. 


Arshdeep Singh is turning into a good all rounder. He had hit 2 sixes. 


Because of his efforts, India had crossed 200 runs which seemed difficult. 


India was all out for 211 runs.


South Africa easily chased this total and won the match. 


Tosses win matches !!!!
