Power Play scores:
Team India opener Ishan Kishan is in destructive form but the only concern for the Indian side is the lack of support from the other batters. However, Ruturaj played a good knock in the third T20. And if both openers performed well then one assume the Indian team score in the range of 45-50 runs in the first six overs. As per batting strength of South Africa, they might put 40-45 runs on board during the power play overs.
Death Over scores:
India might put some good numbers of board in the death overs due to power hitters Hardik Pandya and Dinesh Karthik’s presence in their line-up.
While South Africa also have in form Temba Bavuma and David Miller, who are one of the major reasons behind South Africa’s win in the first two games, and if they managed to score well in the fourth T20 also, so the visitor team can put 40-45 runs during the death overs.
Overall scores:
Team India batters are somehow in good form. So we can assume they might put 170-180 runs on board, while South Africa 180-190 runs.
Who will win Today’s match between IND Vs SA?
India lost the first match despite scoring 211 runs, while in the second T20 they only posted 148 and lost again, they won the third by did some miracle in restricting South Africa batters. However, it’s tough job to trap the inform South African batters and India will need to play a similar kind of cricket in 4th T20 to level the series 2-2.
In terms of the 4th T20, both teams appear to be strong on paper; however, India, who is currently playing without its main stars, till have the solid bunch of players to outlast any major team. Considering the previous performances and strengths of both teams’ players, India may win the third T20 against South Africa.
