Rohit Sharma and his clan continue the winning fairy tale.<\/p>\n<p>India was batting first in the second match of the \u00a0T20I series. Hitman (42) and KL Rahul (55) both gave India a great start. However, the star player for India was SuryaKumar Yadav who scored his half-century in just 18 balls.<\/p>\n<p>Sky destroyed the South African bowlers along with King Kohli (49*) who stood undisputed till the last ball.\u00a0Dinesh Kartikh finished the job for India by scoring 18 runs in the last over.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa again had a disappointing start losing their captain Temba Bavuma and Rilee Rossouw for a duck. Aiden Markram (33) looked stable but was soon dismissed by Axar Patel.<\/p>\n<p>However, Quinton De Kock (69*) and David Miller (106*) kept fighting till the very last ball and their contribution was worth it because their efforts brought down the losing margin to just 16 runs.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India seal the series by 2-0 against South Africa after an unassailable win  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":300,"featured_media":27597,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[832,608,623,624],"class_list":["post-4583","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket","tag-david-miller","tag-kl-rahul","tag-quinton-de-kock","tag-suryakumar-yadav"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4583","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/300"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4583"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4583\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27597"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4583"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4583"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4583"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
