India’s fringe players will be hoping to put on a performance of the highest order as they headline the India vs SouthAfrica ODI series. The likes of Shreyas Iyer, Deepak Chahar, Mohammed Siraj are all set to travel to Australia for the T20 World Cup.
With Jasprit Bumrah ruled out, both Deepak Chahar and Mohammed Siraj are in contention to replace the premiere pacer. The duo featured in the T20I series but with BCCI taking time before they name a replace, both have the opportunity to shine in the 50-over format.

Shikhar Dhawan will lead the side with the main squad on their way to Australia. Fringe players Shubman Gill, Sanju Samson will retain their place in the side from the Zimbabwe series.
The likes of Rahul Tripathi, Shabhaz Ahmed and Rajat Patidar will be hoping for a debut this series. Tripathi was part of the squads for the West Indies and Zimbabwe but is yet to make his debut.
Ravi Bishnoi will also feature having being benched for Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin. Avesh Khan will also be in contention but is unlikely to feature with Siraj and Chahar ahead in the pecking order.
