India and South Africa go head to head in the second ODI in Ranchi on Sunday. India lost the first ODI and are in a must-win situation going into the second ODI. They need to win the match to keep the series alive.
South Africa, on the other hand, are in desperate need of a series win to boost its chances of direct qualification for the 2023 World Cup. The Proteas managed to limit India to 240, chasing 250 to win. Heinrich Klaasen who played a splendid knock in the first ODI spoke about the chances of their direct qualification after the game.
“To qualify for next year’s World Cup is going to be really hard but we are definitely going to try. Our goal at this moment is the T20 World Cup coming up in a couple of days’ time,” said Klaasen.
“We are not too worried about other things we can’t control at this moment. Every time we get on to the field wearing the South African jersey we want to win the game. We are just taking step by step, game by game at this moment,” he added.
Meanwhile, Indian skipper Shikhar Dhawan said that not getting a good start was the reason behind India’s loss. He also hailed Sanju Samson for his valiant knock of 86* from 63 balls, his highest score in ODIs.
“Quite proud of the way the boys played the game, we didn’t get a good start, the way Shreyas, Samson and Shardul batted was excellent. We gave away too many runs on a wicket that swung and spun, the fielding wasn’t great, but this was a good learning experience for us” Dhawan said.
