India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: Live Streaming, Date, IST Time, TV Channel, Team News

After
going
down
narrowly
in
the
series-opener,
the
might
of
the
Indian
white-ball
depth
was
in
full
display
as
the
hosts
won
the
second
ODI
comfortably
to
level
the
three-match
series
1-1.

But
the
Indian
think
tank
would
be
a
little
concerned
about
the
opening
pair
of
captain
Shikhar
Dhawan
and
young
Shubhman
Gill.

Both
batters
struggled
in
the
series
so
far.

One
of
India’s
most
consistent
ODI
batters
in
last
two
years,
Dhawan,
who
is
now
restricted
to
playing
only
the
50-over
format,
has
managed
only
17
runs
in
the
series.

The
veteran
batter
will
hope
to
give
a
better
start
to
the
Indian
innings
in
the
decider
with
his
eyes
set
on
the
ODI
World
Cup
next
year.

Gill,
on
the
other
hand,
has
also
been
profligate
in
availing
his
opportunities
at
the
top.
After
being
cheaply
dismissed
in
the
opener,
he
got
a
good
start
in
the
second
ODI
but
couldn’t
convert
it
into
a
big
score.

The
middle
order
comprising
Shreyas
Iyer,
Ishan
Kishan
and
vice-captain
Sanju
Samson
has
been
solid.

While
Iyer
and
Samson
have
been
consistent,
Kishan
looked
in
imperious
touch
and
all
three
will
be
eager
to
continue
with
their
good
form
as
the
Indian
team
management
continues
to
audition
players
for
the
ODI
World
Cup.

In
the
bowling
department,
Mohammad
Siraj,
who
has
been
touted
as
a
possible
replacement
for
injured
Jasprit
Bumrah
in
the
T20
World
Cup
squad,
has
made
a
strong
case
for
himself.

Spinners
Shahbaz
Ahmed
and
Ravi
Bishnoi
have
also
had
good
debuts.

While
the
stakes
are
not
to
high
for
the
Indians,
it
will
be
a
tough
test
against
a
full-strength
South
African
side,
which
would
be
ravenous
for
ICC
Cricket
World
Cup
Super
League
points.

The
Proteas,
who
are
ranked
11th,
are
in
danger
of
missing
out
on
direct
entry
into
next
year’s
50-over
World
Cup.

Temba
Bavuma,
who
has
been
woefully
out
of
form
since
his
return
from
injury,
was
rested
in
the
second
ODI
as
he
was
unwell
and
it
is
to
be
seen
if
the
skipper
returns
for
the
decider.

Stand-in
skipper
Keshav
Maharaj
erred
in
making
the
right
call
after
the
coin
landed
in
his
favour
in
the
second
ODI
as
South
African
bowlers
felt
helpless
against
the
dew
but
they
will
be
expected
to
come
all
guns
blazing
in
the
series
finale.

Their
batter
have
also
fared
well
and
the
onus
will
be
on
the
likes
of
Quinton
de
Kock,
Aiden
Markram
and
David
Miller
to
perform
with
the
willow.

Rain
could
play
spoilsport.
The
capital
has
been
witnessing
heavy
downpour
since
the
past
three
days
and
there
is
probability
of
scattered
thunderstorm
on
Tuesday
as
well.
