The second ODI between India and South Africa is scheduled to be played on 3 December 2025 in Ranchi. After the first match heroics on the Indian team, the South African team will look to bounce back. For India, the highlights were Virat Kohli's hundred, former and current captain's blistering fifties and brilliant spells from Harshit Rana and Kuldeep Yadav.
Ruturaj Gaikwad, who got an opportunity to play at number 4, failed to capitalise on it. It will be interesting to see if the management gives him another opportunity to play at the same spot. For Ruturaj, every opportunity is a make a break currently. Once Shreyas Iyer makes a comeback, it will be easy choice for the selectors to go with the experience and form.
Further, it will be interesting to see if Rishabh Pant gets a game as he has been picked for the ODI series. The likes of Dhruv Jurel and Nitish Kumar Reddy are also waiting for their turn and will be interesting to see if they get an opportunity to play in the second ODI vs South Africa. As per SportsTiger, here's India's probable 11 vs South Africa for 2nd ODI Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Ruturaj Gaikwad, KL Rahul, Washington Sundar, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Prasidh Krishna, and Harshit Rana.
