Match preview: IND vs SA

Report on the Eden Gardens Pitch

Batters have a preference for surfaces at Eden Gardens. The surface is known to slow down in the later parts of the game, providing favorable conditions for the spinners, yet it also offers bounce in the early stages. At this legendary location, going to bat first and establishing a large target can turn out to be a smart move.

India (IND):

Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, and Mohammed Siraj

South Africa (SA):

Quinton de Kock (wk), Temba Bavuma (c), Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Gerald Coetzee, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, and Lungi Ngidi
