After two scintillating wins, Rishabh Pant’s men will have the momentum with them when they take the field at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Sunday, June 19, 2022, in the final match of the five-match T20I series which is squared at 2-2. The Indian team trailed 0-2 after losing the first two matches at New Delhi and Cuttack but returned strongly to register two big wins (by 48 runs in Visakhapatnam and by 82 runs in Rajkot).
South Africa, on the other hand, lost track completely as one after the other they dished out two significantly below-average batting performances and in fact, registered their lowest total ever in the fourth T20I at Rajkot. Thus, the pressure is on Temba Bavuma’s unit to recover well and show that the first two wins were no fluke shots and that they are one of the most challenging oppositions going around the world.
Though South Africa changed their captain from Temba Bavuma to Keshav Maharaj since the former was unavailable due to injury, they still won the toss and once again decided to field first. India would hence be batting first at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru
South Africa made three changes in their playing 11 as Kagiso Rabada came in for Marco Jansen, Tristan Stubbs came in for Tabraiz Shamsi and Reeza Hendricks replaced an injured Bavuma.
India on the other hand remained unchanged
