India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: In topsy-turvy series, can either team seize control?

India vs South Africa 3rd ODI:


The win kept India from falling into a 0-2 hole from which it would have been hard to recover, and would also have boosted the team’s confidence against a determined South Africa side.
But it also papered over the problems facing the home side. The batting has been iffy, with Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan and Suresh Raina in particular having a hard time of it. Raina has lasted a total of eight deliveries over two games while Kohli hasn’t gone past 30 in his last seven innings. India need at least two of them to get their groove back because Rohit Sharma and Dhoni aren’t going to produce the kind of innings they have in the first two games every day.

Their bowling has largely done the job for them, though, coming through at the death in the first ODI and then having Indian batsmen on the ropes for the majority of the second match.
