India vs South Africa 3rd T20I Match Prediction: South Africa bounced back in a stunning fashion from their 101-run defeat in the 1st T20I in Cuttack to secure a 51-run victory in the second T20I in Mullanpur to level the IND vs SA five-match T20I series 1-1.
Quinton de Kock came to the party with his 90 (46) before the Proteas’ four-man pacer attack restricted India to 162 in their quest for 214.
India have some aspects to worry about, especially the form of Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav heading into the third T20I in Dharamsala.
India vs South Africa 3rd T20I team news:
South Africa had made three changes to their side in the previous match. They benched senior players Keshav Maharaj and Anrich Nortje for George Linde and Ottneil Baartman. The Proteas are unlikely to tinker with a winning combination.
The walls are closing in for Gill while Sanju Samson sits on the bench and Yashasvi Jaiswal out of the squad. For now, though, Gill should retain his place for the 3rd T20I. Despite the heavy defeat in Mullanpur, India are expected to play the same XI in Dharamsala.
