The start of the T20I series didn't go as planned as the first T20I game between South Africa and India was called off due to rain. Now it is time for the second T20I game between the two teams, which will take place on Tuesday.
Both teams will lock horns at St. George's Park, Gqeberha. There are only two matches left in the series, and a win in the coming game will assure a 1-0 unassailable lead for the winner. However, the conditions on Tuesday also show rain, which is concerning.
