The second match of the series slipped away from the hands of the Indian team. Poor performance of Indian players was seen in this match. In the second T20 International match against South Africa, Team India suffered a heavy defeat. After a poor performance by the bowlers, the batsmen also left no stone unturned to embarrass the team in Mullanpur. Tilak Verma and Jitesh Sharma gave their best in the last overs, but they could not prevent the team from losing.

Jitesh could not change the situation, but an incident on the field shocked everyone. The bowler was also stunned by the wicketkeeper-batsman’s good luck. As it happened, Othniel Bartman bowled the second ball of the 16th over of the Indian innings. Jitesh swung his bat hard in an attempt to play a big shot. However, he misses the line of the ball and it hits his stumps. Surprisingly, the ball hit the bells, but did not fall.
