After the toss, Indian captain KL Rahul said that we didn’t play after the World Cup final. It’s a special day, we watched a lot of Pink ODI on TV. Pink ODI has a different meaning in South Africa. There seems to be spin on the wicket, we would like to put pressure on the opposition batsmen. Today Sai Sudarshan makes his debut. However, there are many names who have played a lot of cricket in the IPL. Players like Ruturaj, Tilak and Samson are particularly important. At the same time, we have Akshar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav in our team today, both of whom like spin-friendly pitches. Also know what pressure is and how to deal with it. The IPL experience has taught the players to endure pressure. However, our players are expected to give their best in this game.
South African captain Aiden Markram said we will bat first. Since it is a used wicket, we would like to bat. There are 2 spinners in our playing eleven, today is a special day. Hopefully the fans get to see some good cricket. Nandre Berger makes his debut, special days for him. There couldn’t be a more beautiful day than this.
