IND vs SA: Watch - Yuzvendra Chahal Sends Back Rassie van der Dussen; SA Slip Further
Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal saw the back of the dangerous South African batter, Rassie van der Dussen, at a crucial time in the third T20I in Vishakapatnam on Tuesday.
After India put up 179 on the board in the first innings courtesy of twin fifties from openers, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ishan Kishan, the Proteas needed a strong base at the start.
However, Temba Bavuma was sent back early before Reeza Hendricks fell to Harshal Patel. Van der Dussen, the savior in the first game, had to stick around in the company of Dwaine Pretorious but he couldn’t replicate his first match heroics.
In the over after the powerplay, Rassie tried to make room and cut a short ball but the spin on the ball took it away from him and he managed just an edge which was gobbled up by wicket-keeper, Rishabh Pant.
IND playing XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Axar Patel, Harshal Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Avesh Khan
SA playing XI: Temba Bavuma (c), Reeza Hendricks, Dwaine Pretorius, Rassie van der Dussen, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), David Miller, Wayne Parnell, Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Tabraiz Shamsi, Anrich Nortje
