IND vs SA 2022, 3rd T20I: Today's match players list, teams & umpires

Team India face a do-or-die situation in the third T20I of their five-match series against South Africa, which will be played in Vizag on Tuesday. Having lost both the games in the series so far, Rishabh Pant and Co. will be under extreme pressure to stand up and deliver. Only a victory in the third T20I will keep them alive in the series against the Proteas.

The hosts have had their chances in the two games played in the series, but have failed to capitalize on advantageous situations. In the first T20I in Delhi, they had South Africa in deep trouble at 81 for 3 after posting an imposing 211 for 4. However, the bowlers failed to keep up the pressure as Rassie van der Dussen and David Miller pulled off a record chase.

Even in Cuttack, India had the Proteas in trouble at 29 for 3 as they looked to defend a challenging total of 148. It was a tricky pitch for the batters but Indian bowlers were rendered ineffective as Heinrich Klaasen launched a brutal assault. Do the hosts have it in them to stage a fightback?
