The Spin duo
The spin duoThe spin duo of Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav restricted the Proteas well within the expected score of 300 at Durban, as they took five wickets between them. This set India a modest target of 270 in 50 overs, which they chased with ease and took a 1-0 lead.

In the second ODI at Centurion, the duo rattled the Proteas line-up with their spin. Chahal finished with the figures of 5/22 and Kuldeep Yadav finished with the figures of 3/20, as South Africa were bowled out for just 118. This was their lowest ever ODI total at home. India cruised to a comfortable nine-wicket win. If the spin duo of Chahal and Yadav continue to perform well, then the trophy should be making its way to India.
