South Africa will face India in the second ODI at the Shaheed Singh International Cricket Stadium today (10am SA time), aiming to claim their first win of the series after a 17-run defeat in the opener on Sunday.

Bavuma will return to the squad after missing the first match due to illness. Despite his absence, several players stepped up, including Matthew Breetzke, who impressed with a top score of 72, while Marco Jansen (70) and Corbin Bosch (67) also contributed significantly.

Under coach Shukri Conrad, the Proteas have rewarded consistent performances, and with a surge of young talent providing depth across all three formats, Bavuma has been particularly pleased with the team’s adaptability.
