India: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sai Sudharsan, Tilak Varma, KL Rahul (c & wk), Sanju Samson, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan, Mukesh Kumar.
Aiden Markram: Aiden Markram is among this game’s most popular captaincy choices. Markram will contribute with both bat and ball. He is among the best batters in the team, and his bowling can also induce a few wickets.
Ruturaj Gaikwad: It seems like a risky move, but Ruturaj Gaikwad is a good captaincy pick. He hasn’t performed at all, but Gaikwad is a terrific player. Expect a big score from the opener.
KL Rahul: KL Rahul is another popular captaincy option for this game. He is a fine batter with a fabulous ODI record and will look to extend his good record. Rahul’s wicketkeeping will also fetch a few points.
Heinrich Klaasen: Heinrich Klaasen will be a good differential pick for this game. He has a fine record in Paarl, and Klaasen generally also scores runs against India. A good outing can not be ruled out.
Ruturaj Gaikwad: Ruturaj Gaikwad’s selection % has come down slightly after two low scores, but he might finally score big. The track in Paarl will be nice for the batters, and Gaikwad can make full use of it.
Sanju Samson: Sanju Samson might not be as effective and can be avoided for this game.
If SA bat first:
Complete the team with Reeza Hendricks, Rinku Singh and Arshdeep Singh.
