    What's the story

    Sai Sudharsan has been a solid performer in the 50-over format and he couldn't have asked for a better start after having been handed the Team India jersey.

    After smashing a solid 55* on his debut in the first ODI versus South Africa, the left-handed batter has smoked another fifty in the second ODI.

    Sudharsan scored 62 as India posted 211/10.

    Knock

    A composed knock on offer

    Sudharsan opened the batting alongside Ruturaj Gaikwad and India were reduced to 46/2.

    The 22-year-old then shared a crucial 68-run stand alongside skipper KL Rahul.

    It wasn't easy there in the middle and Sudharsan showed a lot of character. He applied himself and stuck it through.

    Once the partnership was broken, India bit the dust. Sudharsan was dismissed by Lizaad Williams.
