The Indians have been outplayed by the Proteas in the series so far. In the first game, the Men in Green chased a target of 212, and then restricted the hosts to 149-6 in the second game to complete another dominating win. The lack of experience in the Indian team is clearly visible. The bowling, barring Bhuvneshwar Kumar, has been poor. The batters did well in the first game but had a torrid outing in the second. A lot of batters, especially Rishabh Pant, threw his wicket to unnecessary shots.
The team need to unite and deliver a collective effort to stop the South Africa juggernaut, which is threatening to seal the series in the first three games itself.
The surface in Visakhapatnam generally favours the spinners. The pitch is usually damp, with not much pace and bounce, giving slower bowlers an opportunity to dominate the batters.
The weather will be clear and no rain threat is predicted on match day. However, the humidity will be very high which will be a challenge for the players.
Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Axar Patel, Harshal Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Avesh Khan
Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Temba Bavuma (c), Rassie van der Dussen, David Miller, Reeza Hendricks, Wayne Parnell, Dwaine Pretorius, Keshav Maharaj, Tabraiz Shamsi, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje
Both teams won’t be keen on changing the playing XI for this crucial game. There is no update on Aiden Markram but if he has delivered negative results, he could be in contention for a place in the team. However, we don’t think SA will rush him in.
India have always struggled against SA at home and history is being repeated in the ongoing series as well.

Ishan Kishan has been the best batter for India so far. He is the highest run getter of the team with 110 runs in 2 games. Given the momentum he is in, one should have him in the team.
Miller has been in top form in recent times. After playing a blinder in the first game, he calmly took South Africa home in a tricky chase with 20 off 15 balls in the 2nd T20I. Miller is a must in any fantasy team.
Dinesh Karthik has been terrific in the last few months. After a stellar IPL, he got a chance to show his skills in the 2nd T20I. Karthik stroked a quick fire 30 to take the team to a respectable total.
Yuzvendra Chahal has looked off colour thus one can have Axar in the team. The wicket in Visakhapatnam will also suit him and being a left arm spinner, he can be a big challenge for the Proteas.
He is a handy all-rounder who can contribute both with bat and ball. He can smack those lusty blows and can bowl wicket taking deliveries as well. He is a player one should definitely have in his fantasy team.
Dream11 Captain – Ishan Kishan
Dream11 Vice Captain – Axar Patel
