IND vs SA T20I 2 Predictions & Betting Tips

In the 2nd match of the South Africa tour of India 2022, India and South Africa will clash yet again in a 20 over match. Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati will host this game on October 2. Here, I have handpicked the three best team and player betting tips for you from the IND vs SA match prediction.

Even though contrasting half-centuries from KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav aided the small chase, India's win was set up by the new-ball assault from Arshdeep Singh (3 for 32) and Deepak Chahar (2 for 24). The scoreboard was reading nine for five as India dismantled the Proteas top order. Temba Bavuma’s struggles in the T20 format continued. Quinton de Kock has been struggling in the format as well. Batting will be the main focus for the visitors in the second T20I. Ahead of the match, I have collated the best betting tips for the IND vs SA match predictions and you should keep on reading for a better insight.

IND vs SA Team Bet:

South Africa have not been the giants they once used to be. Considering their recent games, I have arrived at the best team betting tip from the IND vs SA match prediction.

South Africa to score under 20.5 runs before 1st dismissal

South Africa had a disastrous start to their tour against India. They were stunned by Arshdeep Singh who picked early wickets and left South Africa overwhelmed. SA could not score a big target, giving away an easy victory to IND. Talking about their opening partnership, SA have not been the best lot lately. They played against England in a three match series where they posted 3, 39 and 0 runs before 1st dismissal. They emerged into playing two games against Ireland and scored 23 and 42 runs for the 1st wicket. When it comes to IND, they face a more challenging task. In the 1st T20I between the sides, SA could only accumulate 1 run before Temba Bavuma gave away his early wicket. In the last six T20Is of SA, Quinton de Kock lost his wicket the earliest on five occasions. He is struggling with his form, giving much more legitimacy to this betting tip from the IND vs SA head-to-head encounter. De Kock and Bavuma average at 30.56 & 25.54 respectively in the T20Is. 1XBET offers the odds of 1.832 for South Africa to score under 20.5 runs before 1st dismissal in the 2nd T20I and it should fetch you a bundle of money if you decide to pick these odds.

IND vs SA Player Bets:

Take a look at the best player betting tips from the IND vs SA match predictions.

Surya Kumar Yadav to score over 22.5 runs

Surya Kumar Yadav, the 32 year-old batter, made a late debut to this 20 over format but has evolved to become one of the most beneficial players for the country since he played his first 20 over match last year. His impressive range of shots impressed everyone and as he made full use of those opportunities, led him to be included in the upcoming World Cup. Yadav believes to be comfortable with batting at any position and has played 30 T20Is so far in his career. He has scored 976 runs in those innings at an average of 39.04. His innings is laced with a century and 8 half-centuries. He was one of the batting pillars in the recently concluded Asia Cup 2022 as he registered 139 runs in 5 games, averaging at 34.75. He posted the scores of 18, 68*, 13, 34 and 6 runs in the competition. Although he faced few early dismissals, his batting potential has been up to par. He scored 46, 0 and 69 runs in three T20Is against AUS in the three match series. In the first game of the series, he managed to smash an unbeaten 50 runs off 33 balls, including 5 boundaries and 3 sixes. In India, SKY averages 42.20, and further strengthens this betting tip. Since he started playing in the 20 over format, he averaged at 34.85 in 2021 that escalated to 40.66 in 2022. His form looks exquisite and is expected to score over 24.5 runs in the IND vs SA head-to-head encounter. 1XBET offers the odds of 1.832 for the same and you should pick it for a hefty payday.

Quinton de Kock to score under 22.5 runs

The wicket-keeper batter, Quinton de Kock is a regular batter in the ranks of the South African squad. De Kock has an experience of 69 T20Is and amassed 1895 runs in those innings, averaging at 30.56. He averages 34.80 against India. These statistics look fantastic from a distance but reveal a deeper problem if you have a closer look at it. In the last six T20Is played by South Africa, he lost his wicket the earliest on five occasions. He posted scores of 2, 15, 0, 7, 7 and 1 in his last six games. As observed, he failed to score over our target on all occasions in the recent games. The batter was having a hard time this year as he could not capitalise on many innings. He even played two games against India in June 2022, and scored 22 and 14 runs in two games. He averaged at 43.66 in 2021 but his average dropped to a low 8.50 in 2022 so far. He averages 26.21 batting at the 1st position and is expected to bundle out early in the upcoming IND vs SA 2nd T20I. 1XBET offers the odds of 1.832 for the same and you should not miss out on this lucrative betting tip.
