Chandigarh, Dec. 11 -- Veins of excitement were felt ahead of the second T20 between India and South Africa, scheduled for Thursday evening at the Punjab Cricket Association's Mullanpur stadium. Despite the dip in the temperatures, fans are all excited to go to the stadium to witness the match. "I bought the tickets for the match as I am a huge Abhishek Sharma fan. He was too good in the Asia Cup. The way he swatted the Pakistan bowlers in the Asia Cup was a treat to watch. I want him to score big against South Africa and entertain the crowd through his sixes," said Shivani Verma, 22. A few months ago, the Mullanpur stadium hosted two ODIs between India and Australia women's teams. On Thursday, the PCA stadium will host the first men's T20 match. "I watched the women's ODIs as well. I am a huge Smriti Mandhana and captain Harmanpreet Kaur fan. I was so thrilled to see the India women's team lift the world cup. I am going to watch the India-South Africa game too, hoping later India wins the upcoming T20 World Cup as well," 19-year-old Khushi said. This is going to be the second T20 match of the series. On Tuesday, India beat SA by 101 runs in a match played in Cuttack. Local players Shubman Gill and Arshdeep Singh will also be seen in action. The match begins at 7.00 pm. The 38,000 capacity stadium is expected to go full-house on Thursday for the highly-anticipated contest. With the venue known for high-scoring IPL encounters, India in red-hot form, and the stadium poised for its international debut, Thursday's clash promises to be a high-octane contest. The next match will be held in Dharamshala on December 14, the third of a total of five matches in the tournament. The venue will host its first men's international match, and the PCA will honour India women's team captainHarmanpreet Kaur and former India great Yuvraj Singh by unveiling stands namedafter them ahead of thematch....
