Yusuf Pathan’s pyrotechnics helped India recover from a top-order collapse and eke out a thrilling two-wicket win over South Africa in the third cricket one-dayer here today.Pathan proved that fortune favours the brave during his breezy 50-ball 59-run knock as he took his chances and hammered the South African bowlers, especially the spinners, to all parts of the ground.Chasing 221 for win, Pathan teamed up with Suresh Raina (37 off 47) to bring India back in contention with less than a run-a-ball 75-run sixth wicket stand after the visitors were reeling at 93 for five at one stage.
