For the unknown, Navratri 2022 began on September 26, and this festival will end on October 5. This 9-10 days long festival is important to all religious Hindus and is celebrated with great fervor.
During the nine-day Navratri festival, devotees worship Durga’s nine incarnations in order to obtain her blessings. There is a goddess manifestation linked with each day of Navratri. During these nine days, people maintain ritualistic fasts, recite shlokas dedicated to each goddess, wear new clothing, offer bhog, and clean their homes. In their prayers, they ask the goddess for her favour in order to have prosperous, joyous, and fulfilled lives.
IND vs SA 2nd T20I
As far as the series goes, India outplayed South Africa and lead the three-match series 1-0. The Proteas will be eager to bounce back from the 1st game defeat. But for that to happen, South Africa batters need to come up with a better batting display.
The visitors looked poor against the moving ball. They were reduced to 9 for 5 with four players getting out for a duck. It was only some good contributions from Keshav Maharaj and Wayne Parnell that helped them cross the 100-run mark. India, in reply, chased down the target with Suryakumar Yadav and KL Rahul scoring half-centuries.
With this series being the last for both teams before T20 World Cup, India and South Africa will be keen to play good cricket on Sunday. They will also be looking to try different combinations before the ICC event as well.
