De Villiers: They pulled it off across the line, credit to India. The target was manageable and a poor batting performance from us. We couldn't extend it after the opening partnership and we have the experience. You have to stay positive no matter what total you are chasing, we couldn't execute well. Very good performance from out bowlers, would have loved to chase something like 200. Nothing too serious about my back, just pulled my lower back a bit and should be fit for the next match.

Dhoni also the Man of the Match: Not an easy game played, a lot of people wait with open swords and want you to make mistakes. We should have got more with the bats and we didn't start well with our bowling but our spinners did well and pacers also came into action later on. Overall not a very convincing win but good win, we can play a lot better. We're not playing to our capacity, not even 80%, in batting or bowling. As a complete batting unit we didn't perform well but we bounced back well. We knew we needed two good deliveries when Tahir and Rabada were batting. I won't say the game was in our hands but we had a good chance if we bowled in the right areas and needed only two good deliveries. It doesn't always go your way (talking about his batting), the top order has been scoring loads of runs in the last 2-2.5 years so lower order doesn't get a big chance to bat. Apart from Suresh there's nobody who loves to do that kind of a job when you go out and you just have to go for the big hits. The pace was very important on this wicket and the length too. Axar is not a big turner of the ball and he pitched it in the right areas. Bhajji has the experience and they didn't try too many different things and flighting or under-flighting the ball was needed and overall they did a good job.

Phew! Dhoni spoke the way he batted a bit today, as if he was waiting to let out. That's all we have from the coverage of the second ODI. The series is level 1-1 and what more could you ask for. Do join us for the third match on the 18th, that's in Rajkot. Until then, goodbye and good luck from Vishal and Nikhil. Ciao!

8.45pm What a turnaround in the match from India! They were 124 for 6 at one point and an out of form Dhoni in the middle. He put together an unbeaten 92 and then the India bowlers, much criticised for not defending very well, bowl SA out for 225. Dhoni knew it had to be spin to put them in trouble and brought them on early on. The spinners not only took wickets but kept the pressure on...

Harbhajan: "Dhoni was fantastic with his captaincy. The wicket was nice to bat on and the ball was turning only when you bowled it slower. Here and there a few sixes went but we kept the pressure on and Axar took two crucial wickets. We felt we were 30 runs short and Dhoni said in the huddle that if we kept the energy up and saved 25-odd runs we could do it."

Baba Fasi: "I hope this will put Dhoni's critics to rest, at least for some time now.."

Nalsar: "SA gift the match to india. Poor decision by indian umpire!"

Ravi: "What a fantastic series this is turning out to be. Better for fans of cricket. "

Only one wicket, and 27 runs...here's Morne Morkel

Under 30 to get now, this is getting tight with only two wickets. Harbhajan and Axar are done with their overs, so only pace left unless MSD goes back to Raina. Bhuvneshwar continues...

Nes: "Rabada only 20 years of age. What composure and the likely MoM. "
