SA vs IND, 3rd T20I: Head-to-Head, Match Details, Squads, And Predicted XIs

SA vs IND: South Africa and India will clash in the crucial third T20I of their four-match series on Wednesday, November 13, at SuperSport Park, Centurion, with the series tied at 1-1.

India comfortably won the first game in Durban, with Sanju Samson shining with a brilliant century, helping India set a huge total of 202/8 in their 20 overs. South Africa were bowled out for just 141, as Varun Chakaravarthy and Ravi Bishnoi each took three wickets. Avesh Khan also played a key role with two wickets, and India won by 61 runs.

India’s batting looks solid, although they may aim to start their innings with more caution. Sanju Samson began the series with a fantastic century in Durban, but his time in Gqeberha was short-lived, as he was out for a three-ball duck.

A big positive for India has been Varun Chakaravarthy’s form, with the spinner taking eight wickets in the first two games of the series. India will hope the 33-year-old continues his excellent run.
