India vs South Africa 3rd T20I Playing 11: India and South Africa will be up against each other in the 3rd T20I on Thursday (December 14) at the New Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg.
The first of the three-match series ended without a result due to rain. But the Proteas won the last match in Gqeberha and now lead the series 1-0 with a match to go. As India's preparation for the T20 World Cup builds, it is going to be a huge match for the visitors as they aim to level the series.

Ruturaj Gaikwad didn't play the last match due to illness, but he is likely to be fit for the match in Johannesburg. Ravi Bishnoi, who was excellent in the Australia T20 series, sat out in the last match but he is also expected to feature in the final match. Shreyas Iyer, Deepak Chahar may also come back to the side, replacing Jitesh Sharma and Arshdeep Singh respectively.
South Africa would be keen to continue with their winning combination but we may see an inclusion of Donovan Ferreira and Keshav Maharaj in the starting lineup for them. Gerald Coetzee, Lungi Ngidi and Marco Jansen all have been rested for the final match we are certain to some changes in the team.
