Tristan Stubbs' unbeaten 47 and a crucial partnership with Gerald Coetzee propelled South Africa to a thrilling three-wicket win over India in the T20 International at St George's Park. Despite a strong bowling performance from India's Varun Chakravarthy, South Africa leveled the series with determined batting.

An unbeaten 47 by Tristan Stubbs and a vital 42-run stand with Gerald Coetzee led South Africa to a narrow three-wicket win over India in their T20 International clash at St George's Park on Sunday.

South Africa faced a challenging task after spinner Varun Chakravarthy's impressive 5-17 had dismantled their top order. However, Stubbs and Coetzee chased down 40 runs in the final three overs, leveling the series at 1-1.

Despite India's struggles against South Africa's fast bowlers and a stuttering start, spearheaded by Varun's masterful bowling, Hardik Pandya's unbeaten 39 offered some hope before Stubbs and Coetzee swung the momentum back in South Africa's favor.
