India is going to play the 2nd ODI match with South Africa today. In the first match India won by skin of its teeth with 1 run.
The tailenders did their job for South Africans and match was almost in their favor but India anyhow managed to win the match despite seemingly convincing win 5 overs back.
India will definitely try to snatch this match by winning this one. Whereas South Africa will try desperately to level the series 1-1.
This time South Africa taking no risk and have already announced inclusion of their batsman-in-form Hashim Amla. India also features debut of one batsman RaviChandran Ashwin aged 24 years.
The team squad for both the country are –
India squad
MS Dhoni(c)(w/k), R Ashwin, RA Jadeja, KD Karthik, V Kohli, P Kumar, A Mishra, AM Nayar, A Nehra, YK Pathan, SK Raina, V Sehwag, S Sreesanth, SR Tendulkar, S Tyagi

Seeing the team members for today, India has reasons for worry as other than Nehra, Sachin and skipper Dhoni whole team is very inexperienced whereas South Africa features there specialist batsmen.
