The second T20I was a thrilling, nail-biting contest, with South African batter Tristan Stubbs playing a pivotal role in leading his team to victory in a low-scoring match. Against the T20 World Cup champions, India, Stubbs' calm and composed knock of 47* off 41 balls under pressure guided South Africa to chase down the target, securing a vital three-wicket win and leveling the series at 1-1. The match highlighted Stubbs' growing reputation in the game, as he delivered a match-winning performance in a tense, closely-fought encounter.
