The Indian team won but lost the second T20 match against South Africa. At one time it seemed that Team India would defeat South Africa, but then Tristan Stubbs and Gerald Coetzee snatched the match from India. In this way, the series of 4 T20 matches has reached a tie of 1-1. Now the third T20 has become very important, but before the third T20, the Indian captain has many questions, answers to which will have to be found. Also, the Indian team would not like to repeat its mistakes in the third T20 match. We take a look at the weak links of the Indian team that spoiled India's fortunes in the second T20 match.
Abhishek Sharma's flop show
IPL hero Abhishek Sharma is continuously flopping at the international level. So far, Abhishek Sharma has disappointed in both the matches of this series. In the first match, Abhishek Sharma was out after scoring only 7 runs. After this, he was out on 4 runs in the second match. In this way, Abhishek Sharma has failed to give a good start to the Indian team. Indian fans are hopeful that if Abhishek Sharma is a part of the playing eleven in the third T20 match, he will score runs. However, it will be interesting to see whether Abhishek Sharma gets a place in the playing 11 for the third T20 match?
Middle order and finisher were flops
Batsmen like Axar Patel, Rinku Singh and Tilak Verma disappointed for the Indian team. Although Tilak Verma has definitely got a good start, but he has failed to take advantage of the good start. Apart from this, Rinku Singh is struggling as a finisher. In the third T20 match, Indian batsmen will have to improve their game so that they can score a good score against South Africa.
Who will bowl in the death overs?
Indian spinners have bowled well in this series. Varun Chakraborty and Ravi Bishnoi have troubled the South African batsmen a lot, but in the last overs, the Indian fast bowlers are proving unsuccessful in stopping the runs. In the second T20 match, Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan could not stop runs in the death overs. India had to suffer the consequences of this.
