The fourth and final T20I of the ongoing four-match series between India and South Africa is scheduled to take place at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg on Friday (November 15). After winning the series opener by 61 runs and the third T20I by 11 runs, India is leading the bilateral series 2-1, and if the Suryakumar Yadav-led side manages to avoid defeat in the final match, it will seal the series.
Tilak Varma and Abhishek Sharma were on fire for the visitors in the third T20I played at SuperSport Park in Centurion, and Indian team management will expect them to maintain the red-hot form. In addition to them, there will also be high expectations from Sanju Samson and Suryakumar, who, after doing well in the series opener, failed to fire in the last two matches.
In the bowling, Varun Chakrvarthy has impressed with his performances in the last three matches, and Arshdeep Singh has also done well.
