India’s probable playing 11 for the third ODI match
India’s probable playing 11 for the third ODI match: India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: The three-match ODI series between India and South Africa is currently tied at 1-1. The third and final match of the series will be played on December 6th in Visakhapatnam, where the series winner will be decided. The Indian team won the first ODI by 17 runs. South Africa then bounced back in the second ODI, winning by 4 wickets, leveling the series at 1-1. Let’s take a look at the possible playing XI for the Indian team in the third match.
Yashasvi Jaiswal might get another chance
Rohit Sharma scored a half-century in the first ODI against South Africa, playing an innings of 57 runs. However, his opening partner, Yashasvi Jaiswal, failed to perform up to expectations and hasn’t been able to impress. Captain KL Rahul and the team management might show faith in him again. He could open the innings with Rohit in the third ODI. Superstar batsman Virat Kohli could bat at number three. He has scored two consecutive centuries in the last two ODI matches.
KL Rahul could take on wicket-keeping duties
Ruturaj Gaikwad might get a chance at number four. Gaikwad scored a brilliant century in the second ODI, playing an innings of 105 runs. It was because of his innings that the Indian cricket team managed to reach a score of 358 runs. Captain KL Rahul could bat at number five and also handle the wicket-keeping duties. All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja might be given another chance.
Prasidh Krishna and Washington Sundar
Prasidh Krishna hasn’t performed well in both ODI matches against South Africa. He has only managed to take three wickets in both matches. Washington Sundar has also failed to deliver a strong performance. The places of both these players seem to be under threat for the third ODI. Dhruv Jurel might get a chance in place of Sundar, while Nitish Reddy could be included in place of Prasidh. Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh may also get a chance in the fast bowling attack. Kuldeep Yadav is also likely to be included in the playing eleven.
