The third match of the 5-match T20 series being played between India and South Africa will be played in Visakhapatnam from 7 pm today. Team India has suffered a crushing defeat in the first two matches. If Team India loses the match today, they will have to lose the series as well. Earlier, South Africa had won ODI and T20 series in India in 2015. At that time Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the captain of Team India. Since that South Africa has not won any series in India. In such a situation, today's match is going to be very important for Rishabh Pant's team.
The Indian team lost the second T20 match against South Africa by 4 wickets. This was India's 7th consecutive defeat against South Africa in all three formats. Earlier, India had to face defeat in two consecutive Tests and three ODIs on South Africa tour.

The playing XI with which South Africa landed in the second T20 match. Can go with that. At the same time, Team India can make 3 changes in its playing XI. Rituraj Gaikwad, who could not do anything special in the last two matches, may be discharged from Axar Patel's team.
