IND vs SA: Team India has secured a ticket to the final by defeating England by 68 runs. After 10 years, on Saturday 29th June, the Indian team will play the final match of the T20 World Cup at Kensington Oval ground in Barbados.

In the title match, India will face South Africa, which like Team India has won all its matches so far. In such a situation, what will be the playing 11 of Team India for the final match. Who will be those 11 players who will end India's 11-year ICC drought. This question will be in everyone's mind, so let's answer it.

IND vs SA match, there will be a change in Team India's playing 11!

  • If we talk about the opening pair in the playing 11 of Team India (IND vs SA) against South Africa, then Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen together as opening batsmen.
  • Rohit Sharma is performing well as an opening batsman.
    But Kohli is failing miserably in this tournament.
  • Out of the 7 matches played so far, he has touched the two and a half digit mark in only 2 matches, while in all the matches he has been out on single digits.
  • He has scored only 75 runs in these matches. The statistics show how much of a flop he is.
  • But despite this, he will be seen playing in the title match, because according to his experience, he is a very sharp batsman, who can be useful for India in the final.

Sanju Samson to get a chance in place of Shivam Dubey?

  • If we talk about number 3 against South Africa (IND vs SA), then Rishabh Pant is sure to play.
  • If we talk about the middle order, there can be a change in it.
    Suryakumar Yadav bats at number 4, so there will be no tampering with his position.
  • Shivam Dubey plays at number five.
    But his performance throughout the tournament has been very poor, so Dubey may be dropped against South Africa.
  • Sanju Samson can be fielded in his place. Sanju has not played any match in the World Cup so far. This will be his first match.

No change in bowling possible

  • Apart from this, as all-rounders, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja and Akshar Patel are certain to be in the South Africa (IND vs SA) team.
  • Akshar and Hardik are performing very well in the tournament.
  • Apart from this, if we talk about bowling, Jaspreet Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh will take charge of fast bowling in the final match of the Indian team against South Africa.

IND vs SA: India's probable playing XI

Rohit Sharma (captain), Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dubey/Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah.
