IND v SA Match Preview:

Indian batters had a good day out in the last match. Every batter who got the opportunity to bat did well. Ishan Kishan scored a fifty, Hardik Pandya & Rishabh Pant played brilliant cameos, while Ruturaj Gaikwad & Shreyas Iyer did decent support acts. 

However, the bowling department had an off day. None of the bowlers could leave an impact. Harshal Patel will be crucial in this game as Cuttack generally offers a two-paced surface, meaning his slower balls will be difficult to read and hit. India is likely to field the same playing XI in this game as well. 

South African batter had a terrific outing with the bat. Rassie Van der Dussan and David Miller won them the game last night. Miller is in great form and is expected to play another good knock in this game as well. Watch out for Temba Bavuma. 

In the last match, Wayne Parnell had a great comeback into the T20 side. The bowlers were spot on with their plans, especially the fast bowlers. The management could get bring in another pace bowling option in the XI in place of one of the spinners.
