Today Cricket Match Prediction of India vs South Africa
After being overwhelmed by India’s wrist spinners for three straight games, South Africa found a way to win. Or India found ways to slip up. It wasn’t exactly clear which. In Johannesburg’s summer rain, the hosts had a friend in need. That coupled with a gung-ho approach to a shortened chase and India’s ill-discipline on the field put an end to the tourists’ four-match winning streak.
But it is still 3-1 to India and that is reason (not like he needs one) for Virat Kohli to talk up the his team’s confidence levels. With belief coursing through the squad and two more opportunities to seal the rubber, the visitors remain in pole position to complete that unprecedented bilateral series win in South Africa. However, the game at the Wanderers brought to light a chink in their supposedly fail-proof ODI methods: On its day, the middle-order can prove to be crumbly even after a well-laid Kohli-Dhawan platform. Personnel as experienced as Ajinkya Rahane and MS Dhoni are still finding a way around their shortcomings – read power-hitting – to play the roles assigned to them.

What to expect: It was overcast and windy on the day before the match while it is expected to be cloudy with rain forecast for the morning of match day. Port Elizabeth pitches often make batsmen work hard for their runs. The last two first-innings totals scored in ODIs are 181 and 167. In the two games played in the domestic ODI cup this season, Imran Tahir has grabbed a fifer and left-arm orthodox spinner JJ Smuts was among the wickets. There’s a little layer of grass on match eve meant to aid carry. But the pitch is famous for playing slow and so India’s wrist spinners could once again be licking their lips in anticipation after a rather rude shake-up at the Wanderers
