IND vs SA 2nd T20: 11 Players That May Play; One Who Scored Century ELIMINATED

The first match in Durban was washed out due to rain, prompting the focus on the upcoming second T20, slated for Tuesday.

The commencement of the South Africa tour for the Indian team began with T20, scheduled before the 10th of December. However, the first match in Durban was washed out due to rain, prompting the focus on the upcoming second T20, slated for Tuesday, 12th December at St. George Park, Gqeberha. Both teams now strive to secure a victory in this match to avoid series defeat, with only two games remaining in the three-match series. The team victorious in this encounter will, at the very least, salvage a draw in the series.

Potential Changes in the Indian Squad

As the Indian squad prepares for the second T20, Captain Suryakumar Yadav is keen on maintaining team focus and may consider reshuffling the lineup. The return of Shubman Gill might lead to a promising player, Ruturaj Gaikwad, losing his spot, despite his recent century in the T20 series against Australia. Yashasvi Jaiswal is likely to open alongside Shubman Gill, aiming for a left-right combination, giving Gaikwad a slight advantage.

New Vice-Captain for Team India

During the initial three T20 Internationals against Australia, Ruturaj Gaikwad assumed the role of deputy or vice-captain under Suryakumar Yadav for Team India. Shreyas Iyer was the vice-captain in the last two matches. However, for this series, Ravindra Jadeja has been appointed vice-captain and is presently with the team in South Africa, set to play a significant leadership role.

Predicted Indian Playing 11

Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Rinku Singh, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Mohammad Siraj, Arshdeep Singh.
