The second Test between the Indian cricket team and South Africa kicks off the new year on Wednesday at Cape Town's Newlands Stadium. India, who are now down 0-1 after losing their opening Test match in Centurion last week, can salvage a draw in the series as long as they can overcome history and win a Test match at this location for the first time ever. The only Test victories India has ever had in Cape Town are draws in 1993 and 2011. And their general struggle is the reason for such a dismal record.
