Pre-Match Analysis:

South Africa are still in a transition phase and the series against India is a perfect opportunity for them to fix their combination ahead of the T20 World Cup which is 6 months from now. Aiden Markram will lead the troops that feature experienced players David Miller, Heinrich Klaasen, and Keshav Maharaj. Despite his consistent performances in the shortest format, Reeza Hendricks has been in and out of the side and the 34-year-old batter will be the first choice opener in the upcoming series against India. Ottniel Baartman and Nandre Burger are the fresh faces in the squad with the latter being the front-runner to make his T20I debut. There will be a toss-up between Tristan Stubbs and Matthew Breetzke for the wicketkeeper slot. With Lungi Ngidi ruled out of the series due to an ankle injury, Marco Jansen to take charge of the bowling unit.

India faces a problem of plenty of resources with the return of their star players Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Siraj, and Kuldeep Yadav. Axar Patel, Prasidh Krishna, Avesh Khan, and Shivam Dube who were all part of the T20Is against Australia have been dropped. It’s a healthy selection headache for the management to choose from the best of the resources they have. Ruturaj Gaikwad or Yashasvi Jaiswal will pair with Shubman Gill to open the innings. Shreyas Iyer and Suryakumar Yadav will bat at No.3 and No.4 respectively. Rinku Singh, Jitesh Sharma, and Ravindra Jadeja will form the middle order. Ravi Bishnoi who was recently elevated to the No.1 bowler in the ICC T20I Rankings will be the chosen ahead of Kuldeep Yadav. Arshdeep Singh, Deepak Chahar, and Mukesh Kumar will start as pacers.
