Centurion, February 22
South Africa defeated India by six wickets in the second T20I to level the three-match series 1-1 here today. India rode on Manish Pandey’s 79 off 48 balls and and MS Dhoni (52* off 28 balls) to post 188/4. The hosts, thanks to stunning half-centuries from Heinrich Klaasen (69) and JP Duminy (64*), overhauled the target in the penultimate over with six wickets to spare.
Brief scores: India: 188/4 in 20 overs (Manish Pandey 79*, MS Dhoni 52*; Junior Dala 2/28); South Africa: 189/4 in 18.4 overs (Heinrich Klaasen 69, JP Duminy 64*; Jaydev Unadkat 2/42).
Women’s match washed out
The Indian women’s cricket team will return from their tour of South Africa without losing a single series after the fourth T20 International was abandoned due to rain, making the 2-1 lead they enjoy in the five-match series unassailable.
