SA vs IND Key Players

Reeza Hendricks

Quinton De Kock’s unavailability gives Reeza Hendricks an advantage. He has a series here to play himself in and show that he should be the first-choice opener in the side.

Ravi Bishnoi

Bishnoi has silently gone on to become the number-one T20 Bowler in the World. He is a unique leg-spinner and could be a challenge for South Africa, which hasn’t seen much of him.

SA vs IND Match Tips

Both South Africa and India are trying some new players here. India though do have some experience in their side and could back themselves to make a mark in South Africa.
