IND vs SA: Will India Change Their Team?
Sports: India will play against South Africa in the Super 8 match of the T20 World Cup 2026 on February 22. The match will be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
There is a question about whether India will change their playing XI. Opener Abhishek Sharma has not scored runs in the last three matches. Still, he may get another chance because Sanju Samson is also not in good form.
India may continue with the same team that played the last match at the same stadium.
Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma are expected to open the innings. Tilak Varma may bat at number three. Captain Suryakumar Yadav may bat at number four. Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, and Shivam Dube may play as all-rounders. Rinku Singh may play as a finisher.
The bowlers are likely to be Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, and Varun Chakravarthy.
