/South Africa chose to bowl vs India
India lost their fourth toss in four on the tour of South Africa, and were asked to bat first on a fresh pitch with the Easterly wind blowing, which is generally the bowling wind in Gqeberha.
India led the series 1-0 after having drawn the T20Is 1-1. The surface had a lot of grass to try to hold together the cracks on the pitch. The big boundaries added to it meant a big score wasn’t a guarantee.
