After Durban, India and South Africa are in Centurion to play the second One-Day International (ODI) of bilateral six-match series at the Supersport Park on February 4, 2018. The Virat Kohli-led Team India look a confident unit post registering a comfortable victory in the opening match. As the visitors hope to extend the series lead to 2-0, the hosts find themselves on the back foot with a string of injured players missing the match. Their regular skipper and last match centurion, Faf du Plessis is the latest name to join the list. However, the South African side will hope to level the series. The second fixture will be live telecast on Sony Ten and Sony Ten HD channels while live streaming option will be available online on Sony LIV app. India vs South Africa Second ODI 2018 Preview: Resurgent India Look to go 2-0 up Against Proteas Minus Faf Du Plessis.

After Virat Kohli and Co. hammered South Africa in the first match, it helped them register India’s first ODI win in seven long years. The stat clearly reflects the visiting side’s hapless record in the African nation. But now with a win in the series opener, India has a good chance to improve these records, especially against a depleted South African side. Proteas will be without Du Plessis and swashbuckling batsman AB de Villiers in Centurion. It is going to be a tough task for stand-in-skipper Aiden Markram to stop the Men in Blue. If India wins the series, they will also clinch the number one spot in the ICC ODI team rankings.
