IND vs SA Dream11 Prediction Today Match: The Indian team’s South Africa tour did not start well. While in the first match, the game was canceled due to rain, the second match was also affected by rain and India lost by 5 wickets. Now it is the turn of the last and must-win match of the series for the Indian team. Both the teams are going to do something special in today’s match because, at the turn of the series, no team is going to get an easy victory. India vs South Africa will start at its scheduled time of 8:30 PM IST on 14th December 2023 in Johannesburg. The Proteas team is leading 1-0 in the series. In the second match, South Africa, batting brilliantly, defeated India by 5 wickets.
Team India will try to ensure that their players perform better in this match win the third T20 International match and end the series at 1-1. The Proteas team would like to win this match and win the series 2-0. Looking at the performance of Team India, it seems that there will be a change in the third T20. The team’s bowling was very compact and there was not much emphasis in it. Let us first see what changes can be made.
Indian bowlers will have to improve their bowling
If India has to win this match and level the series, then they will have to make a lot of changes in their bowling. In the second T20, the Indian bowlers seemed to have lost their rhythm. Although the rain spoiled the work of the bowlers, still they did not seem to be in control. Deepak Chahar has not joined the team due to his work, whose absence we saw in the second match.
Arshdeep and Mukesh will have to show strength
In the second T20, when Arshdeep bowled his first over, he gave away 24 runs. Arshdeep gets a place in the team again and again but he does not live up to the expectations. Talking about Mukesh Kumar, there was no special strength in his bowling. Arshdeep gave away at 15.5 runs per over while Mukesh gave away at 11.33 runs per over. Apart from these two, there is no one else to support senior bowler Mohammad Siraj, so in such a situation, they will have to take care of bowling economically.
Bowling is also very important for Mukesh and Arshdeep because Deepak Chahar is absent and India has only 4 more matches to play before next year’s T20 World Cup, so both of them would like to attract the attention of the selectors with their performance.
Ruturaj Gaikwad may return to playing 11
Talking about the openers of the Indian team, both Yashasvi and Gill returned to the pavilion after contributing zero runs. Gill is making a comeback after a long time, so he will have to show that he is as capable of playing T20 as he is of playing ODI. Yashasvi’s problem is that he either creates a storm with his bat or he cannot even blow the wind. He plays in such a way that he cannot be trusted much.
If we compare Ruturaj with both these openers, then Ruturaj is better at scoring runs and also taking responsibility for the team, in such a situation the team should show confidence in him. The last series was his best where he not only remained the top scorer of the series but also held the record of the batsman scoring the most runs in a T20 series.
Keeping Ravi Bishnoi out of playing 11 costed the team
Ravi Bishnoi is a spinner who also bowls in the powerplay and in the last series he won the Man of the Series award. We did not understand anything to see him not playing in the second match. Perhaps Kuldeep Yadav is senior, hence he might have been given preference, but this decision was very costly for the Indian team.
In the five-match T20 series between India and Australia, more wickets were bowled in every match due to which the pressure on the opposing team increased, in such a situation we can understand what is the value of bowling in the powerplay by Ravi Bishnoi. In such a situation, the team management can think of calling him back and giving him a place in the playing 11.

IND vs SA: Wanderers Stadium pitch report
Wanderers’ pitch is also one of those which is considered heaven for batsmen and hell for bowlers. To do something different, the bowlers have to make a strategy and depend on the weather. Wanderers’ pitch has bounce, which the batsmen can use to help them score runs, but the bowlers can get help from swing and pace if the weather is good. This ground has a history of having many high-scoring matches.
So far 32 T20 matches have been played at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. In 15 matches, the team batting first has won and in 17 matches, the team batting later has won. It can be said that the score is almost equal but still, the team gets a lot of help in batting for the second time. Looking at all this, it would not be wrong to say that the team winning the toss would prefer to bowl first and chase the targtet.
The average score while batting first on this ground has been 172-175. The Sri Lankan team’s score of 260 runs against Kenya in 2009 is the highest score at this ground. On the other hand, only 83 runs scored by Bangladesh is the lowest score on this ground.
