South Africa made a terrific comeback in the 2nd T20I against West Indies on Sunday to defeat the hosts by 16 runs to level the 5-match series. Just one day after losing the opening game by 8 wickets, the Temba Bavuma-led side returned with a zeal to thump Kieron Pollard’s West Indies. Put to bat first, South Africa posted a challenging total of 166 runs after losing 7 wickets in their quota of 20 overs. They conceded 35 runs together to starve the run rate and put their side in a good position to defend their total. The third T20I of the five-match series will be played at the same venue on Tuesday.
