Live Streaming, India vs South Africa, 2nd Test, Pune: Where To See Live Cricket

Pune's pitch is under focus as India take on South Africa in the second Test from Thursday (October 10). This is Pune's second ever Test match as host and it will have to redeem its reputation after the city's debut game (India vs Australia) in 2017 ended in three days with ICC rating the pitch as "poor." This time around, India have a 1-0 lead against a South African side minus the Hashim Amlas, Dale Steyns and AB de Villiers.

In his 50th Test as captain and given the formidable team he has at his command, Virat Kohli or his team management are unlikely to pass instructions to Pune's pitch curator Pandurang Salgaocar. India look perfectly balanced and with Rohit Sharma becoming only the second Indian opener after Sunil Gavaskar to smash back-to-back hundreds in the Visakhapatnam Test last week, the hosts have very little to worry. Their 203-run win in the first Test was built on contributions from virtually every section of the team -- openers, middle order, spinners and pacers.

Dean Elgar and Quinton de Kock's brave hundreds were not enough to save the Test for South Africa. India's bowling mix can trouble even the best of batsmen in the world and if Kohli's men must add to their reputation as world's No. 1 Test side, the pitch should be taken out of the equation.
