Match Winner: India.

South Africa started the series with an exceptional 30-run defeat to put India on the back foot, thanks to their exceptional spin attack and Temba Bavuma's batting masterclass. With this surface comparatively a bit decent track, we can expect India to bounce back stronger and bag a comfortable win to level the series 1-1.
