Match Review
On Wednesday, September 28, at the Greenfield International Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram. India and South Africa played in the 1st T20I match of the South Africa tour of India, 2022.
50's from KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav successfully navigated the Indian ship during the challenging 107 chase. The Greenfield Stadium's green top made things harder even if the aim appeared to be straight forward. Both teams had difficult starts, but South Africa's tale was significantly more painful.
India got off to the perfect start thanks to Arshdeep and Deepak Chahar, who took 5 wickets in the opening three overs. The visitors' predicament worsened when they were down to 68/7, but Keshav Maharaj gave them a little reprieve. Before India held Temba Bavuma & Co. to 106/8 in 20 overs, the South African spinner hit 41 off 35 balls.
