India Predicted XI vs South Africa 3rd ODI: KL Rahul likely to make multiple changes in dead rubber

As they stare at an embarrassing sweep on South African soil, India will be looking to make corrections in both divisions and change the starting 11 with multiple changes in their third and final ODI in Cape Town. Under KL Rahul, India’s bowling team looked out of sync, failing to pick up wickets in crucial moments and failing to maintain momentum in midfield. In the first two overs, the bowlers managed to pick seven wickets with seasoned picks such as Ravichandran Ashwin and Bhuvneshwar Kumar looking toothless against opponents. Ashwin has so far failed to make an impact, which could allow management to test someone like Jayant Yadav in the final. The 32-year-old Yadav’s only 50 for India was at home against New Zealand in 2016. The head coach also has a wealth of speed bowling resources. Mohammed Siraj, Navdeep Saini and Deepak Chahar have been waiting for their first match of the series and the Cape Town race could open the door for the speed trio. Prasidh Krishna is also a convenient but relatively inexperienced option. It remains to be seen whether the change in team management strategy will result in a major change in Eleven bowling. While the dull bowling camp needs some adjustment, India’s middle class also needs a shakeup. Skipper KL Rahul’s experience in South Africa might be called anti-climate as he starts the Test series with a hundred. His long-term future as a leader is at stake, and he could potentially return to the middle class. Virat Kohli may have scored 51 points in Game 1, but it was evident his lack of energy on the field after leaving the ODI leadership.

The two Iyers – Shreyas and Venkatesh – have also failed to make significant contributions so far, adding to India’s middling woes, which have been the team’s Achilles heel since the 2019 ODI World Cup.
