It will be a do-or-die match on Sunday for India as they will cross swords with South Africa in the second One Day International. The host made a poor start to the three-match series as they lost the first ODI by nine runs. It was a disappointing batting performance as India failed to chase a target of 250 runs in a rain-curtailed match. South African bowlers also deserve the credit for keeping their calm in a tricky run-chase.
Playing the second One Day International, India will be hoping for a better batting performance from their top five batters. South Africa, on the other hand, will fancy continuing the momentum.
