IND SA Perth Weather: India vs South Africa LIVE on Sunday at 4:30PM,…
India are currently at the top of the Super 12 Group 2 points table with two consecutive victories over their arch-rivals Pakistan and the Netherlands respectively.
But as bowling coach Paras Mhambrey had, earlier, asserted, some of the players may give it a miss. It could be yet another optional session. But the likes of Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik and KL Rahul will look to have a full-practice session. KL Rahul had a bad day while Hardik and DK did not get time in the middle against Netherlands. Having already played in Perth during the build-up, India will be quite aware of the pace and bounce.

However, India’s bowling all-rounder Axar Patel had downplayed the threat from the South Africa pace battery. He believes that Virat Kohli can deliver against all the odds after notching up two consecutive half-centuries in the T20 World Cup 2022.
“We will plan about it. We will play our normal brand of cricket we have been playing without worrying about bouncy pitches and the fact that they have bowlers like Anrich Nortje and Kagiso Rabada. We also have our Virat bhai (Virat Kohli) in form,” Axar Patel said at the post-match press conference.
A win for India, meanwhile, will mean that they will virtually qualify for the semi-finals.
