1st T20I: South Africa Opt To Field First Against India At Kingsmead
Kingsmead Cricket Ground: South Africa have won the toss and chose to field first against India in the first T20I match of the four-game series at Kingsmead Cricket Ground here on Friday, in their first clash after the T20 World Cup final. The reigning T20 World Cup winners will be facing the Proteas side they nudged past in the final of the tournament when India beat South Africa by seven runs to lift the trophy for a second time.
The Suryakumar Yadav-led India have been in top form since the final in June with the team having won 10 of their 11 matches since. The Men in Blue also hold the venue advantage over their opponents with the side never having lost in Durban and have four wins in five games at the Kingsmead Cricket Ground.
Despite the overcast conditions, Surya kept his cool and claimed the team would have chosen to bat had they won the toss.
