SA vs IND 2nd ODI: India eyes series win, South Africa aims for comeback
The first ODI, which was also a Pink match, witnessed the hosts suffer a humiliating defeat, where the Indian pacer ran riot over much-established stars. Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan displayed an impeccable line and length that enabled South Africa to post their lowest-ever ODI score at home, bundling out of 117.

Meanwhile, a win could see India gain an unassailable lead and avenging their 2021-2022 ODI white-wash.
