Ishan Kishan never expected that he would get caught at 93. The partnership between Ishan and Shreyas led to India winning the last ODI match. The ball was not coming to the bat and still, Shreyas Iyer was able to score his century. Good comeback by the India side.
The well deserved century for Ishan Kishan is just seven runs away. I must say that he played a selfless inning and that's how he plays for the team. His performance yesterday was excellent, and he truly deserves the ton, but I believe this is just the beginning. There is no limit to the depth of Indian bench strength. Overall, kudos to their partnership, which contributed to India's second ODI win.

The two openers Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill could not stay at the crease for long, but Ishan Kishan and Iyer's outstanding performances helped India win easily. Shubman Gill missed the century for just 7 runs. The performance of Indian batsmen in recent matches has been outstanding. Even the second-row batsmen are in good form. But their bowling is still not strong enough. If India wants to become champion in the upcoming T20 World Cup, then their bowlers must play well.
Indian cricketers are famous all over the world. All the players in group A and B outside the national team that have also the ability to defeat any strong team. The way India performed in the last match, they really played a commendable game for ODI cricket. Especially Shreyas Iyer who was unbeaten on 113 on the other hand Ishan Kishan missed the century by just 7 runs. Due to the performance of both of them, India easily won the match.
There are able players and the team is good to win any match. Just think of the previous match, almost the same team wasn't able to reach the target of 249 runs. The team is good and we can't expect the players to do it consistently. At times things happen out of the calculation and the following players too makes mistake. In the last match the openers missed it and the following players took responsibility and played according to the situation which is the reason for the commendable winning.

Today we'll come to know how good is the team India, as the third ODI which is going to be the decider for the series win.
This series has been very difficult to predict since its inception. Just when it was thought they would be white washed in T20, South Africa pulled their victory. Again in the ODI series, just when South Africa seemed that this series would be their victory, India won the match again. If India wins the next match then South Africa will have to return empty handed.

At this point, none of the other countries can boast of the player depth that India is having. Even if all the players in the current XI can't play in the next match, they can just bring in the bench players and still win the match. That can't be said about the other teams. Teams such as England and Australia are dependent on a few key players and without them they won't be able to compete against the top teams. And then there are countries such as Bangladesh, which are over-dependent on one or two players.

the fact that Ishan Kishan was not able to reach his century was sad. It was a great performance by him and he deserved to have his hundred. But i think he had done a much more important job. Which is hanging in there and making sure India is on the verge of winning the match. At the point when he got out, it really didn't matter because India already had Shreyas Iyer in the middle, and they were also about to win the match when he got out. Bad luck for Ishan Kishan. Well played, India.

Now the series is drawn levels 1-1. The next match is going to be the decider. And I do not want the last match to be one-sided.

India VS South Africa

South Africa won the toss and decided to bat first. A good decision in case if it might rain in Ranchi today. However their current run rate is below 5 and they have already lost 2 wickets. The pitch doesn't seems to favour batter but more to bowlers. This is the last match of the bi lateral series and India needs to win it otherwise they will lose this series in their home ground.  
In the second ODI match South Africa lost the match but their style of play was very interesting South African batsmen Hendricks and Marakram fought for the match with great responsibility and formed a pair of them Hendricks and Marakram scored 74 runs and 89 runs but South Africa batting better  Even though I didn't do that well, I think if the South African bowlers had tried, maybe South Africa would have won the match, but it was a match to enjoy.
Every one wants to do well in the international area. The same thing happened in South Africa. They made the highest effort. However, I will blame South Africa's Low Score in the second innings where India is a big opponent. India's well performs in the second innings and South Africa's low score match has taken it in favor of India.

Ishan Kishan VS Shreyas Iyer

They both scored a half-century in this match, you can clearly see the difference between them. Ishan Kishan is behaving as an ODI batter wherein Shreyas is still in the T20 slow mode. Ishan has been using bat down attitude for most of his shots but Iyer is using a bat up approach. This is why Iyer has been vulnerable in every format of the game.

This is why Ishan Kishan is suited for ODI and Test cricket rather than a T20 player. Then again he is playing in his hometown.
Differences can be seen but I am fascinated by the partnership between the two cricketers. The effort shown by both of them to stay on the pitch in ODI format is really appreciable. Their playing attitude today looks like they may have both come up with a plan to finish the game. Overall I consider both of them deserve thanks of today's match.
ODI matches were quite interesting to watch when teams play good cricket and there is good chasing. In today's match there is good batting from South Africa. Followed is the innings of India, in which Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer made good winning partnership. Shreyas Iyer have recorded century, Ishan Kishan missed the century and Sanju Samson have made some beautiful shots. For all the discussion that stated the first ODI to be a fix have come to an end with the 7 wicket win.
In the last ODI match between South Africa and India, India introduced responsible cricket. They could not win the first match but the performance of the last match shows that they are perfect in this series. But some South African fans disagree with it. They feel that their scored run in the 2nd ODI was quite low as they could not win that match. Anyway, as the series is still alive, both the teams will try their best to control the upcoming match and won the series.
South Africa and India have played a very tough game. I thought that India will not be able to score so many runs in this match. Later I saw that India played very well. I never thought that India would be able to score so many runs. Both teams are very important to me.  Loved it. South Africa scored a lot of runs in the match but they did not bowl well.

Batting a target of 250 runs in the first match, they were defeated by just 9 runs. But they did not make any mistakes in the second match. Batting for a target of 279 runs, India won very easily. Although the two openers Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill did not play well, India had no problem winning the match due to the excellent performances of Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer. Ishan Kishan scored 93 off 84 balls and Iyer remained unbeaten on 113 off 111 balls. The performance of the South African bowlers was very poor. However, the series is now tied at 1-1. I think India will win the last match and India will win the series.

For now ICC doesn't have any other go other than increasing the number of teams. Till date ICC tries to keep everything under control, and having more teams might affect the persons who are in the top authority. Real cricket lovers always stays with the test cricket, but the revenue making and time constraints have moved people to watch T20 and T10 matches more than the test and ODI matches.

The number of teams is being increased. But the problem is that most of the teams that qualify are "fake" national teams without any native players. And that is not going to do anything towards increasing the popularity of cricket. And in order to waste resources, the ICC need to cut down the number of test matches. Test cricket is dying, and there is no point in diverting the resources to a losing cause when it can be better utilized elsewhere. 3-4 test matches a year should be enough, and remaining time should be devoted to T20 cricket.  
Yes this is true. When the viewers or audiences are losing interest, investment in test matches are expected to nothing but losses. Especially in Asia, the importance of test match is reduced day by day. Local cricket boards are not willing to keep test match in the series. Since T20 has more viewers, ICC should give more importance to T20 along with ODI format.
People are losing interest because they don't have time to sit in front of TV for long and keep watching the slow dull game.
Even the white uniforms are also very off putting

This pitch isn't a very easy one. South Africa should have crossed 300 mark but the pitch started playing its tricks in death overs and the same thing could happen with the Indian inning unless due comes into play. Otherwise, I believe proteas already has a competitive total.

India is playing with bat deep strategy as Lord Thakur will come at num 8 so they have depth in batting but hardly any experience under their belt. 

Don't know how the pitch is not easy for the south Africans but all of sudden it comes easy for the Indians who chased this target in 46th over with only three wickets down. These days the losing teams always come up with excuses of bad pitch while actually its their performance which is bad.

Yeah, you will say that South Africa did win the 1st ODI but remember they lost the T20 series and i am sure they will lose the ODI series too.
It's not easy to win against India when you are playing in India.  India is unstoppable with Shreyas Iyer scored over a 100 runs and Ishan Kishan missing a century by just seven runs.

I am being honest. This was a really good performance from India even though the openers of India could not do much. And we all know that India is capable of chasing. They have proved that once again. I think this match was just terminated by the Indian batsmen. They played really well in this match. It was a little sad to see Ishan Kishan not get his century. But Shreyas Iyer got his 100 and these 2 innings were the catalyst for India's victory.

Now I am not sure if South Africa will be able to win in the last match. It's drawn between both the teams 1-1. Right now, I am not confident that South Africa will be able to win the last match of this ODI  series. But at the same time, the openers of India are not doing very well. So, that is something that South African bowlers will try to take advantage of.

Guess you were wrong here. Anything under 300 is hardly competitive these days in the ODI format which is why I expected India to win comfortably which is what happened at the end of the day.

Iyer and Kishan were incredible together. I felt sad that Kishan missed on a well deserved century, but 93 runs is still a lot. On the other hand, Iyer scoring a century despite cramps was epic.

South Africa are under pressure now due to their direct qualification scenario for the 2023 World Cup. Am expecting India to win the final too.
Dew was there to create trouble for South African bowlers, they even changed a ball when it got out of control.

Having said that Iyer and Kishan batted beautifully, this is a good sign for India and it shows the depth of the bench considering the first 15 choices are in Australia and 3-4 players are injured.
