The 2nd T20I between hosts South Africa and India at St. George’s Park in Gqeberha is heavily threatened by rain. Rain played spoilsport in Durban, causing India’s visit to South Africa in 2023–24 to get off to a bad start.
The weather has chosen to decide its own destiny as the teams relocate to Port Elizabeth. Each and every game in the shorter format is crucial since the Indian cricket team has just five international games remaining until the T20 World Cup 2024.
There are still a lot of unanswered concerns regarding the makeup of both squads, since they have a variety of choices. Both the nations, India and South Africa have young rosters. They have players recognised because of their speed and six-hitting ability in addition to new faces adds to the intrigue.
Having said that, the 2024 T20 World Cup is drawing near, and the two teams will have very little time to perfect their preparations for the highly anticipated global tournament. The Proteas are still trying to find their way as they want to capitalise on their recent rise to prominence in white-ball cricket. Meanwhile, the Men in Blue still have spots that they need filled in their perfect T20I XI.
Weather Report for India vs South Africa : 2nd T20I?
Rain might arrive in Gqeberha as well, according to Weather.com just like it was predicted for the first T20I. Following the abandonment of the first IND versus SA T20I in Durban, nothing can be expected from the weather. On December 12, there is a 20% probability of rain between 8:30 and 11:30 p.m. IST at St. George’s Park Stadium. During the match, there is predicted to be a humidity of 73.5% and a temperature range of 24°C to 17°C.
The game is scheduled to begin around 8:30 P.M IST (5:00 P.M local time). Thus there is very little likelihood that dew will have an impact on the result. Because of the overcast and humid weather, pacers will enter the game whereas spinners might just have a forgettable encounter.
