What the captains said at SA vs NED toss?

South African Captain, Temba Bavuma said, "We are gonna have a bowl first. Looking at the overcast conditions, it may swing. It's a small ground so it will be difficult to defend. We have to start off well, be nice and clinical there. We can take the confidence, belief is growing among the ground. Hopefully, we can keep up the performances. One change - Coetzee comes in for Shamsi."

Netherlands Captain, Scott Edwards, "We would have bowled first as well but unfortunately, we cannot change that. For us, it is to be sticking to the blueprint and adjusting to the conditons. We have Logan coming in for Ryan Klein."

Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala Pitch Report

You have reasonably a small boundary, 67m one one side and 61m on the other. Down the ground it is 74m. There's a good amount of live glass present on this surface which will help the pacers. South Africa going for the extra pacer is going to make a difference. There would be bounce and pace on offer, reckon Matthew Hayden and Dinesh Karthik.
