The Men in Blue’s delayed start to the campaign can be attributed to their IPL schedule which got over pretty late. Their opponent South Africa are having a campaign to forget so far with two losses in their opening two games and key players getting injured.

India did well in their second warm-up game against Bangladesh after a lacklustre performance against New Zealand. KL Rahul looks set to be the no 4 in the team with Vijay Shankar missing out.

His reading of the game is second to none which helps Virat Kohli a lot on the field. It will be a toss-up between Yuzvendra Chahal and Bhuvneshwar Kumar depending on the conditions for a place in the playing eleven.
