Will Rahul hold on to his spot?

KL Rahul is being blamed for not utilizing his opportunities.  His place fell in Jeopardy after Sheyas Iyer Preformed good in Caribbean. Manish Pandey also might not find a place. Hardhik Pandya joined the side after taking rest for West Indian series. He also forces change in composition if side Krunal Pandya is certain to be in the side, Either Ravindra Jadeja or Rahul Chahar will take spinners slot. Rishab Pant should do well in his preferred format.  India is playing without Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvaneswar Kumar. khaleel Ahmed is certain to fill one of two fast bowlers slot. Navdeep Saini also got opportunity in the absence of jasprit Bumrah

South Africa

South Africa are coming into the series straight after  dismal performance from World cup. They are playing without the likes of Hashim Amla and Faf Du Plesis. Rabada should take care of bowling department along with Pretorius.

Predictions

  • South Africa to win the match if they bat second.
  • Kohli to score 50.
  • Navdeep Saini to pick two or more wickets
