Despite Centurion's setback, Rohit Sharma aims to become the second Indian captain, after MS Dhoni, to avoid a Test series defeat in South Africa.

Results of the 2nd IND vs SA test LIVE: After a disappointing defeat in the first Test, India are all set to redeem themselves when they take on South Africa on January 3 in the second and final Test at the Newlands Cricket Ground in Cape Town. SuperSport Park in Centurion saw India lose by an innings and 32 runs, leaving them trailing in the series. The next match in Cape Town will be an opportunity for Rohit Sharma and his men to bounce back and equalize.

South Africa, led by Dean Elgar, put up an impressive performance in the first Test, dealing a major blow to India's aspirations of securing a Test series victory in South Africa. India, who dominated the Tests, had a disappointing performance with bat and ball, conceding 245 and 131 runs respectively, while South Africa scored a staggering 408 runs, led by a phenomenal 185 points from Dean Elgar.

Historically, since 1992, India has faced South Africa in eight Test series, winning seven and drawing one. The team wanted to improve its results and correct the shortcomings observed during the first test.

Rohit Sharma, who struggled in the first Test, scoring just 128 runs in 10 innings at an average of 12.80, will look to improve his record in South Africa. With the support of a talented batting and bowling team, India are looking to turn things around in Cape Town.
