IND vs SA: The Indian team is currently on a tour of South Africa, where a four-match T20 series will be played between the two teams. The first match will be played on 8 November. It is not going to be easy for Suryakumar Yadav to choose the playing 11 in this match because the squad includes more than one match-winner player. In this article, we see which players can get a chance in India’s playing 11.
Top order
In the first T20I match to be played with South Africa, it is almost certain that Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson will open. Both the players can come on the field to give a strong start to the team. At the same time, captain Suryakumar Yadav himself will come to bat at number three, as this is his batting spot. However, the order of this latter can also depend on the conditions of the match.
Middle-order
Suryakumar Yadav can include players like Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Ramandeep Singh, and Axar Patel in the playing XI of the first match, who can come to bat according to the conditions. Rinku Singh can be selected to play the role of finisher, as he has done so many times before.
