SA vs IND 4th T20I: Match Preview
A clinical bowling performance, spearheaded by the spin duo of Varun Chakaravarthy and Ravi Bishnoi, coupled with Sanju Samson’s blistering century, helped India secure a comfortable victory in the first T20I. Then, Varun Chakaravarthy continued his stellar guile but his five-wicket-haul went in vain as Tristan Stubbs won Proteas the second game.
Another Team India batter scored a superb century when Tilak Varma nailed down the no. 3 spot. Arshdeep Singh did the rest with the ball take take India’s lead to 2-1. The Suryakumar Yadav-led side has been firing in all cylinders and we can expect similar on November 15 as well.
The current T20 World Cup champions have won 21 of the 25 T20Is so far this year and would love to end the year as a team with the most T20I wins in 2024. As for South Africa, they have done a decent job at the back end of their bowling but their batters need to step up against India’s spin challenge.
