India can only survive if the game and attitude are changed. Crisis in batting Mid performance of the middle order. Shreyas Iyer and Venkatesh Iyer cannot do justice to the team. Virat Kohli reached the century mark with 64 innings to spare. The performance of the bowlers is also disappointing.

R Ashwin and Yusvendra Chahal get unarmed. While the Indian batsmen are sweating in the powerplay, the bowlers are unable to stop the flow of runs. Possibility of change in the Indian team. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jaspreet Bumra could be replaced by Mohammad Siraj and Deepak Chahar. Suryakumar Yadav may be considered to replace Venkatesh Iyer.

South Africa has no worries. He has won 31 of the 37 games he has played in Cape Town, doubling his confidence. South Africa, meanwhile, are penalized for the low over rate in the second ODI.
