Teams Report:

In the First ODI India won only by one run in the last ball.

India bat first and scored 296 which is little difficult to chase in the Day and Night Match. South Africa started batting and lost some  important wickets early. But at the end tailenders scored good runs and pulled the match until the 50 over.

Now the pressure is on South Africa. Already India is a head with 1-0. South Africa have to win in the second match, if they want to win this series. If India won the second match then South Africa will lost the series.

Indian batsman are in good form, especially top order and middle order are strong. Youg players Suresh Raina, Yousuf Pathan are playing well in their positions.
The pitch curator is telling that 300 plus score will be possible. Toss will not be factor and pitch will also assist the spinners.

India had a good record in the Green Park Stadium at Gwalior. India won in seven matches out of Nine.
