Temba Bavuma Will Reach 2,000 ODI Runs: The third match of the three-match ODI series being played between India and South Africa will be played on Saturday 6 December at the ACA-ADCA ground in Visakhapatnam. In the first two matches of this series, both the teams have won 1-1. The last match is going to be very fun. In this match, South African captain Temba Bavuma can achieve a big achievement.
Temba Bavuma can complete 2000 ODI runs in this match. South African captain Temba Bavuma, who is writing a new success story on the India tour, can touch the 2,000-run mark in the third ODI. Bavuma needs 13 runs for this. Bavuma will be the 22nd South African batsman to do so. Bavuma might have touched this figure if he had been a part of the first ODI played in Ranchi.
Bavuma, who played an important inning of 46 runs in the second ODI, started his career in this format in 2016. In his injury-hit career, Bavuma has scored 1,987 runs with the help of 5 centuries and 8 half-centuries in 52 innings of 54 matches played so far. His average has been 42.27.
The South African team has won the ODI series in India only once. In 2015–16, the 5-match ODI series was won by South Africa 2–3. South Africa’s captain in that series was AB de Villiers. Bavuma has a chance to equal de Villiers’ record and become the second South African captain to win an ODI series in India.
Before the ODI series, a 2-match test series was played. South Africa, captained by Temba Bavuma, won the series 0-2. This was the first time since 2000 that South Africa defeated India in a Test series. In such a situation, the Indian team will have to be careful in the third ODI against South Africa. Bavuma and Co. will be looking to repeat the feat of 2015-16 by winning the third ODI.
