South Africa have won the toss and have opted to field
Pitch and Conditions: "The pitch that is being used tonight is right in the center which means the boundary is equal on either side, 65 meters and straight is 74 meters.
It has a fair bit of grass but it is dry grass, it will not help the seamers too much.
Fair amount of cracks as well but doesn't seem to grip too much as well.
It is going to skid through and not much for the spinners. Because of the weather it has a little bit of moisture and can be two-paced.
It is quite humid and dew hasn't been there in the last couple of nights. The par score is going to be 160-170," reads Deep Dasgupta.
Teams:
India (Playing XI): Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant(w/c), Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Axar Patel, Harshal Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Avesh Khan
South Africa (Playing XI): Temba Bavuma(c), Reeza Hendricks, Rassie van der Dussen, David Miller, Heinrich Klaasen(w), Dwaine Pretorius, Wayne Parnell, Keshav Maharaj, Tabraiz Shamsi, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje
Rishabh Pant: We would have bowled first as well. The track is really nice. We would want to havw a big score on this. There wasn't many things we did wrong. We are playing the same team.
Temba Bavuma: We will have a bowl first. We don't know how the wicket will play. It was easier to bat second in the last game. You can chase anything with smaller boundaries, You need to stay in the fight as bowlers. We have two forced injuries. QDK has a hammy injury.
