Head-to-Head Record SA vs IND
South Africa and India have competed against each other in 28 T20 Internationals, with India winning 16 matches and South Africa registering 11 victories. India lead the last five encounters by 3-2.
South Africa
South Africa had no answers to India in the opening game in either department. Besides Marco Jansen’s 1 for 24 in four overs, the bowling attack was largely ineffective as they conceded 202 in 20 overs. Chasing a big target, they needed someone to play a long innings but Heinrich Klaasen’s 25 ended up as the highest score of their innings.
India
Sanju Samson became only the fourth batter in world cricket to register centuries in consecutive T20Is as India made light work of the hosts. Samson smashed 107 runs in 50 balls while Tilak Varma struck 33 off 18. Later, Varun Chakravarthy starred with 3 for 25 in four overs and Ravi Bishnoi also snared three scalps to complete a comfortable win.
