Major guns like AB de Villiers, Faf du Plessis and Quinton de Kock are missing from the South African team at the moment and the void created by their absence has not been filled by the hosts.

Experienced players like Duminy and David Miller have more responsibility in such circumstances. However, they have failed to step up to the expectations from them so far in the limited overs' series.

Duminy, who was the South African skipper for the day, returned to the pavilion after adding just 3 runs to the scoreboard. He played 7 deliveries to score those runs and fell to a terrific catch by Raina in the deep.

Also, he did not bowl himself in the first innings when India were hitting the ball to all parts. The change might've worked for his team and help restrict the visitors to a relatively smaller total.
