India comfortably defeated South Africa in the second OD�🐭�I at Centurion by 9 wickets, after the Proteas team crumbled to 118 runs in the heat of the Indian spinners.
After winning the toss and asking South Africa to bat first, Bhuvneshwar Kumar removed Hashim Amla early and Quinton De Kock went 🅰to a spinner again.
The South Afr✅ica batting crumbled under the mastery of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal.
Chahal picked his first five-wicket haul in ODIs – 5/22 and Kuldeep picked 3/20. South Africa was dismissed to their lowest ODI total (118) in the absence of experienced players AB De Villiers and Faf Du Plessis.
Indi🎶a chased down the target comfortably with 9 wickets in hand as Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli added 93 runs for the second wicket; Dhawan remained unbeaten on 51 and Kohli on 46.
