Toss India opt to bowl v South Africa in the first T20 on Sept. 28, 2022.
India and South Africa kickstarted their final T20I series before the T20 World Cup with home captain Rohit Sharma opting to bowl on a Thiruvananthapuram surface that looks set for plenty of runs and a fair amount of dew.
India made four changes to their XI from their last outing. Jasprit Bumrah is out with a back pain, with Deepak Chahar replacing him. R Ashwin takes Yuzvendra Chahal’s place. Rishabh Pant and Arshdeep Singh replaced the two rested players Hardik Pandya and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
