South Africa Betting Analysis

South Africa will be disappointed with how their team collapsed in the first T20i, especially when considering the depth of batting at their disposal. However, Gerald Coetzee can take great confidence from a very good display of bowling across his allocated four overs. The quick bowler picked up three wickets and is well worth backing to add another 2+ to his overall tally here.

India Betting Analysis

It was a really coming of age innings for Sanju Samson in regards to playing for India, as Friday saw him lay down a strong case to become a permanent feature in their team following the retirements of both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, striking 107 from just 50 balls opening the batting. He won’t want to stop there and bettors should think about potentially backing Samson to follow that up with another decent score, although perhaps not as high as in the first game. Consider backing over 26.5 match runs for Sanju on this occasion.

South Africa vs India Expert Prediction

As well as Sanju Samson played last time out, it’s unsustainable for any side to rely on the sort of big innings played by him in every T20i. From a South African perspective though, they are due a big team score after coming up cold most recently. Although rain could be a factor, the talent within this Proteas’ line-up makes backing them to come back fighting with a winning performance potentially a smart play here.
