India vs South Africa: Indian bowlers in focus with aim to level series in 3rd T20I

Firstpost  

India trail South Africa 1-0 in the three-match T20I series with the first match washed out completely. India bowlers will be under the lens in the team’s effort to combine short and long terms goals in the third T20I against South Africa at Wanderers on Thursday. Arshdeep Singh and Mukesh Kumar were destroyed by South African opener Reeza Hendricks, leaking 15.50 and 11.33 runs per over and they needed to regroup in a day’s time. But banking on past records and opposition’s weak points alone will not work against an outfit like South Africa, as India, especially bowlers, need to find a way to fire in unison. Teams: India: Suryakumar Yadav, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Tilak Varma, Rinku Singh, Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan, Jitesh Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, Deepak Chahar.
