IND vs SA: Even though Yuzvendra Chahal had a horrid comeback in the first T20I against South Africa, the spinner finally grabbed a wicket in the second T20I. After he was smacked for a four by a well-set Temba Bavuma, the mindful spinner made a comeback as he dismissed the South African spinner on the very next delivery.
After South Africa were 29/3 in 5.3 overs while chasing a modest total, captain Temba Bavuma held the crease along with Heinrich Klaasen, adding 64 runs in 41 deliveries for the 4th wicket.
Yuzvendra Chahal came on to bowl the 13th over of the match with Bavuma on strike. Chahal tossed the first delivery up around middle and leg, and Bavuma went down on his knees, heaving it down to deep mid-wicket for four runs.
Chahal yet again tossed the next delivery up on middle. Temba Bavuma rocked back in his crease to pull it away. However, the ball was pitched slightly fuller than before and the Proteas' skipper was beaten as his stumps rattled. Bavuma was dismissed after scoring 35 runs in 30 deliveries with 4 fours & a six.
