Stubbs heroics defeat India in thriller: 2nd T20 (Port Elizabeth)

Stubbs (47 not out) shared a 42-run partnership with Gerald Coetzee to take the home team to 128-7 in 19 overs in reply to India's 124-6 to level the four-match series at 1-1 in a dramatic. Indian spinner Varun Chakravarthy took a career-best 5-17.

Earlier, Hardik Pandya's unbeaten 39 gave India a respectable total to try to defend.

South Africa 128 for 7 (Stubbs 47*, Varun 5-17) beat India 124 for 6 (Hardik 39*, Peter 1-20, Simelane 1-20) by three wickets.
