On cricketing front, India lost the first T20 by 7 wickets despite scoring over 200 while batting first. Powered by Ishan Kishan's quickfire 76 and contributions from Shreyas Iyer and Hardik Pandya, India had put on 211/4 in their 20 overs. It looked like a decent total even on a friendly batting track. Indian bowlers even got the initial breakthroughs but the in-form David Miller and Rassie van der Dussen had other ideas. They put on a 131-run stand for the 4th wicket to take Proteas across the line with five balls and seven wickets in hand. India will aim to make it 1-1 when they take on South Africa in the second T20 at Cuttack on June 12.
