Kagiso Rabada has news for South Africans: "Failure is going to happen." And there’s more: "It’s going to happen again." He probably did not mean that all India need to do to win the third ODI at Newlands on Wednesday is turn up for the toss. But you could see where Rabada was coming from. India have won the first two games in the series convincingly‚ following a six-wicket drubbing at Kingsmead on Thursday with a nine-wicket thrashing in Centurion on Sunday. If anyone thought Virat Kohli’s team would be dispirited after losing the Test series‚ think again. In fact‚ India have been playing the demonstrably better cricket from the third Test at the Wanderers in January‚ when they overcame extreme conditions to win by 63 runs.
