India and South Africa move to Delhi to write the final chapter of what has been an intriguing series, on Tuesday, October 11. The series has been a testament to India's batting depth, particularly in white ball cricket and the Shreyas Iyer-Ishan Kishan show in Ranchi last night was a solid example of the quality of this young Indian side. After missing out on a victory by just nine runs in the opener, the Shikhar Dhawan-led side fought back hard to level the series in style, setting fans up for an exciting finale on Tuesday. IND vs SA 2nd ODI 2022 Stat Highlights: Ton-Up Shreyas Iyer Inspires India to Series Levelling Win in Ranchi

India were much more clinical with the bat in the 2nd ODI than they were in the first. Shreyas Iyer continued his good form as he notched up his second ODI hundred and back-to-back good scores under his belt. Ishan Kishan was sensational, with the left-hander initially taking time to settle in before taking on the bowlers and hitting them for big shots on both sides of the wicket. What was even better was India's bowling at the death as they dried up the flow of runs and did not let South Africa get to anywhere near 300 despite the presence of a hitter of David Miller's calibre at the crease.

Come Tuesday, both teams would be geared up to give their best one last time to seal the series in their favour. Beating South Africa's first team is no less of an achievement for this young Indian side while the Proteas will look to be at nothing short of their absolute best to seal a win.  India, having found a winning combination, are unlikely to make any changes. South Africa on the other hand, can replace Anrich Nortje with Lungi Ngidi. They would also hope to have skipper Temba Bavuma back in the XI if he recovers from his illness.
