India vs South Africa 3rd T20: Kohli, Rahul rested; another stern test awaits bowlers in Indore — When and where to watch, Live streaming, squads and more

India vs South Africa 3rd T20 2022 Scorecard, Highlights, Date, Live Score: Team India wrapped up the three-match India vs South Africa series in style in Guwahati with an emphatic victory, and in process, India went on to register their first T20I series win over South Africa at home. Although that makes the third India vs South Africa T20 2022 at Indore an inconsequential game on paper but Indian bowlers await another tough test against the Proteas ahead of the T20 World Cup when the two squads meet in the final game of the three-match series on Tuesday.

Having sealed their first-ever series against South Africa at home, Team India’s management has decided to rest its premier batsman Virat Kohli and vice-captain KL Rahul for the final game India vs South Africa T20 in Indore.

As far as the squads go, it's anticipated that standby batsman Shreyas Iyer will replace Kohli for the final India vs South Africa T20 game. With Rahul also rested, either Suryakumar Yadav or Rishabh Pant will open the batting alongside skipper Rohit Sharma. With no alternate reserve batsman in the team, Shahbaz Ahmed or one among Mohammed Siraj or Umesh Yadav could get a chance.

Despite the series loss, there has been a lot of positives for South Africa in the series. Continuing his menacing form this time, David Miller smashed an unbeaten hundred while Quinton de Kock got important runs before the T20 World Cup 2022. The biggest concern for the Proteas is the form of their skipper Temba Bavuma, who's yet to score a run in the series.
