In the second match of the three-match ODI series, India won the toss and batted. The team was led by KL Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan to a good start. Together they scored 63 runs for the first wicket, but Shikhar Dhawan was dismissed after scoring 29 runs. Former captain Virat Kohli came to the crease and faced five balls before returning to the pavilion without scoring. As a result, India was under pressure. But Rishabh Pant, batting well with KL Rahul, first took the score beyond 100, then completed his half-century. It was due to a misunderstanding between Pant and captain KL Rahul that the latter escaped.
Despite this, the pair added over 50, with Pant scoring his fifty off just 43 balls.

Left-handed batsman Rishabh Pant reached the fourth half-century of his One Day International career with the help of 6 fours and 1 six in 43 balls. Rishabh Pant was once again inserted at number four by the management. Earlier, Rishabh Pant was the number four batsman in the first match of the three-match ODI series played here, but he did not contribute much. It took Rishabh Pant only 22 balls to score 16 runs in the first ODI. This time, he led the innings intelligently instead of playing defensively.

“It was merely a moment in which I asked Rishabh Pant a few questions. I’m not sure why he didn’t enjoy it. But I was not hostile in any way. The offence could stem from the way he took it, not the way I did,” Van der Dussen told ESPNCricinfo.

“It was a nice position at short leg. There was never any hostility going on. And when I went out to bat, they retaliated quite nicely. It is part of the game. It’s Test cricket. Everyone is trying to level the playing field.”
“I don’t know if he would have played that shot if I hadn’t been there or if I hadn’t said anything. I know by nature he is that type of player. In hindsight, it was a massive moment for us in the Test series,” he said.

Following the first Test, India lost the second and third by seven wickets. According to Van der Dussen, he enjoys bantering with opponents.
“I enjoyed it. By nature, I am quite competitive. Growing up in a club cricket system in Pretoria, which is very hostile in terms of verbals, I’ve never been one to shy away from a bit of banter. The Indians called it sledging. I would never call it that. These days with cameras and stump mics, we don’t really know what sledging is but I did enjoy it. I’m always the type of guy – I play hard on the field. I’m obviously never going to be personal,” he added.
