    Temba Bavuma says he made his debut in T20Is when he did not expect it but he has worked hard and it has started off well. States you need to have the mind-set to score quickly. Further adds he does not have the power like Gayle but he needs to keep the scoreboard ticking. On the six he hit in Mohali, he says, he surprised himself and realized he can hit the ball a long way. Ends by saying they will get a lot of confidence after this win and it is important as there is a Test series coming up which is not going to be easy.

    IND vs SA Live Score and Updates: A comprehensive win for the South Africans. An excellent performance in a game they had to win. Also, this is de Kock’s first win as T20I skipper and he is an integral part of it. However, a lot of credit has to be given to their bowlers as it is they who set it up. Brilliant efforts from Hendricks, who was brought into the team for this game, the two spinners and Rabada ensured they keep India to a total which was always going to be under par.

    In reply, the South African openers did an excellent job by adding 76. They were helped by the Indian bowlers who were extremely poor. Every bowler, even the spinners were extremely short which made it easy for the batters to score the runs. Reeza Hendricks did fall after getting a start but de Kock continued and Bavuma also fulfilled his role. The two added another important stand and took their side over the line.
