Besides Samson, Shreyas Iyer (50) and Shardul Thakur (33) also played good hands but couldn't take India over the finishing line chasing 250. ?Needing 30 runs off the last over, Samson hit Tabraiz Shamsi for 20 runs but it was not enough.
He did not play a single ball in the 19th over, potentially proving to be the difference in the game. Among the bowlers, Shardul Thakur bowled well while Mohammad Siraj was brilliant as he swung the ball both ways to trouble the Proteas batters initially but without any luck.
Death over bowling continued to haunt India as David Miller and Heinrich Klaasen brought up their century partnership in just 84 balls. To add to that, India dropped as many as four catches, displaying poor standard of outfield fielding.
On the other hand, South Africa would be high on confidence after their Miller and Klaasen hit stroke-full half-centuries in the first game. Down at 110 for four, Miller and Klaasen added 139 runs for the unbroken fifth wicket to take the visitors to close to 250-run mark.
