'Horrendous': Gill, Suryakumar Face Fans' Ire After Failing Again Against South Africa in 2nd T20I
India’s captain and vice-captain failed early in a 214-run chase with strategic errors, leading to a 51-run defeat in the second T20I against South Africa.
- On Thursday, December 11, India lost the second T20I by 51 runs in New Chandigarh as Suryakumar Yadav, India captain, accepted responsibility, saying he and Shubman Gill should have batted deeper.
- Shubman Gill's golden duck set the tone, with India's top order collapsing early as Gill and Suryakumar Yadav fell quickly, leaving 32/3 in four overs and Sanju Samson dropped for tactical changes.
- South Africa piled up 213/4 to set 214, the first 200-plus against India since the 2024 World Cup, while India folded for 162 with Abhishek Sharma top-scoring 17 off 8 balls.
- With the T20 World Cup approaching, former players warned that Shubman Gill's form has dipped, averaging 14 in 17 matches this year, raising concerns for India captain Suryakumar Yadav.
- Public criticism has intensified as fans and commentators grow impatient, and the Indian team says it learned from South Africa pacers and will adjust tactics for the forthcoming match.
