India won the toss and chose to bowl vs South Africa
India won the toss and opted to bowl on a small Holkar Stadium ground, in the third and final T20I against South Africa in Indore. Captain Rohit Sharma didn’t expect the pitch “to change a lot”, and announced three changes from the side that won the second match on Sunday.
It is likely Rishabh Pant will open with Rohit. Pant did not get to bat in the last three T20Is he was part of, having last batted in the middle during the Asia Cup match against Afghanistan on September 8.
South Africa, meanwhile, are seeking a consolation win ahead of the T20 World Cup which starts in two weeks’ time. The visitors replaced the rested fast bowler Anrich Nortje with allrounder Dwaine Pretorius.
The highest length of the boundary from any side of the pitch was only 69m, with another high-scoring game expected after the two teams had piled up a combined 458 runs in the second T20I in Guwahati.
India: 1 Rohit Sharma (capt), 2 Rishabh Pant (wk), 3 Suryakumar Yadav, 4 Shreyas Iyer, 5 Dinesh Karthik, 6 Axar Patel, 7 Ravichandran Ashwin, 8 Harshal Patel, 9 Deepak Chahar, 10 Umesh Yadav, 11 Mohammed Siraj
South Africa: 1 Temba Bavuma (capt),2 Quinton de Kock (wk), 3 Rilee Rossouw, 4 Aiden Markram, 5 David Miller, 6 Tristan Stubbs, 7 Dwaine Pretorius, 8 Wayne Parnell, 9 Keshav Maharaj, 10 Kagiso Rabada, 11 Lungi Ngidi
