They are consistent with both bat and ball. South Africa, on the other hand, will look forward to winning this match and clinching the series.
South African captain Temba Bavuma said at the toss, “Same thing, bowl again. The (pitch) colour is different, has a yellowish tinge to it.
Feels hard, looks like a good wicket to bat. Same team. Just want to focus on the areas we can improve.”
Indian captain Rishabh Pant said during the toss the team would have bowled as well. “But as a team, we are not looking at the toss too much.
Same team. We spoke about getting better in execution and if we do that we will be fine. Looks like a better wicket, but feels a bit soft underneath.”
