In the second Twenty20 International at St. George's Park, Gqeberha, on Tuesday night, Team India's bowlers failed to hold onto the wet ball, giving them the short end of the stick against South Africa. India almost lost the game in the first Powerplay as South Africa's openers, Reeza Henricks, soar to make it 78/1. India was defending a revised target of 152. South Africa took a 1-0 lead in the series with just 74 runs remaining to be scored. They won by five wickets and needed just seven balls to reach home.
