India vs South Africa, 2nd T20I Live Updates: India suffered an early setback after going into South Africa’s second T20 International (T20I) of their five-game series on Sunday at Cuttack. Ruturaj Gaikwad chased a wide throw from Kagiso Rabada in the first over and hit it straight to Keshav Maharaj at the back mark. For South Africa, Quinton de Kock misses with an injury, with Heinrich Klassen replacing him. Reeza Hendricks filled in for Tristan Stubbs. India remains unchanged. South Africa put off a stunning 212 chase in the series opener in New Delhi and the hosts will try to even things out at the Barabati stadium. Cuttack is buzzing with pre-match suspense, with the stands packed even for India’s pre-match training session. Rishabh Pant is the captain of the hosts, with designated skipper KL Rahul being ruled out with a groin injury on the eve of the first T20I. South Africa, meanwhile, will be full of confidence after stunning punches from David Miller and Rassie van der Dussen led them to a 7-wicket victory that gave them a 1-0 lead in the series.
