India won the second test against South Africa

India won the second Test match played between India and South Africa in Cape Town. Last test match India lost to South Africa with a margin of 75 runs and an Inning but here in Cape Town India came back as strong as they were known for. 

India Create History! It was January 2021 when India breached Fortress Gabba after 32 years and now in January 2024, they have managed to breach in Cape Town. In doing so they become the first ever Asian cricket team to Beat South Africa on this ground.

Team India also level the 2 match series and have achieved this feat for the first time since 2011, this test also became the quick one to end in history of Cricket in terms of balls , as took only 642 legitimate balls to get us a result.

India Vs South Africa test came to an end within 1.5 days, the previous match-winner South Africa The first test winner surrendered against India’s fiery bowling attack and got all out at a mini-score of 55. Siraj started with the new ball and he hit the right areas, with his fiery spell no South African batsman came confident against him due to the Indian bowling attack.

There was an anticipation that 2nd day will be final day for this test . It all started with Jasprit Bumrah , he given breakthrough by taking ealy wicket in his first over. India was looking in control when the score of Proteas reeling at 111 for 7 , however , when India taking control , KL slipped a catch of Aiden Markram at 73 and he took charge against Pacer Prasidh Krishan to score his scintillating hundred on this pitch where batter could ever cross the 50 run marks

India chased down

After Inning of South Africa came to an end , Indian Batting has 79 runs to chase , Yashaswi Jaiswal provide some good fire in second inning along with Captain Rohit Sharma and scored almost half of the run chase , though India lost Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli  wickets in small run chase Rohit Sharma stayed till the victorious run  hit by Shreyas Iyer.

Bumrah Strikes in second Innings

Jasprit Bumrah again bowled incredible spell against South Africa , he totally dominates against mighty batting line up of Proteas, he took 6 wicket with top class quality bowling performance.

Last time India lost series against South Africa while playing in Cape Town , this time India really gave a tough competition to Proteas and won this second test series within  1.5 days and Rohit Sharma become first captain who draw test series against South Africa in South Africa. it takes 12 years to show some courage and  display a best batting and bowling figure here , though batting unit has really disappointed here , bowling was something can say extraordinary performance by Indian Pace Bowling Attack.

Indian Batting and top Scores

Indian Batting unit has not put their best here , in first test KL scored a century but one batsman who really stand tall till conclusion of second test and he is one and only Virat Kohli , one of the prominent and absolute batting legend shown again his class and stand tall to won this series. Over all it was combined efforts but bowling unit has put some extra one .

Dean Elgar bids adieu to International cricket

Dean Elgar who bids adieu to International cricket , could not contribute much in second inning of this test . After the conclusion of game Virat Kohli met and given him  his signature ridden jersey as memento .Rohit Sharma also presented  an Indian Jersey signed by all the players to Dean Elgar as farewell gift.
