IND vs SA 2nd ODI: Match Date and Time

The second India vs South Africa ODI will be played this Wednesday, that is December 3, 2025.

The match is scheduled to start at 1:30 PM Indian Standard Time (IST), same as the opening fixture, and so fans can expect the coin toss to be conducted at around 1:00 PM IST. 

India has, notably, been on a toss losing streak, and while that hasn't always affected the match result, they would likely be hoping to get out of the loop as soon as possible.

IND vs SA 2nd ODI: Venue and Pitch Report

India and South Africa will meet next at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium in New Raipur. 

Only one 50-over match has been held at this stadium so far, which was back in January 2023 between New Zealand and India. The latter won by 8 wickets in that contest.

As for the general pitch report, the surface in New Raipur tends to be balanced, with some purchase available for both spinners and seamers. 

Therefore, fans can expect another exciting contest as they did in Ranchi. 

India's Probable Playing XI For 2nd ODI

Most of the squad that took the field in Ranchi did a decent job, and hence, the Men in Blue might not make much changes, if any at all in their second clash against South Africa.

One possible change though could be Rishabh Pant replacing Washington Sundar to add an extra proper batting option in the lineup.

IND Probable Playing XI: Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rishabh Pant (WK), KL Rahul (C), Ravindra Jadeja, Harshit Rana, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Prasidh Krishna
