#2 What we can expect from India

4th Momentum ODI: South Africa v India

India will be looking forward to winning the series in Port Elizabeth, and they have every chance of doing so with the conditions in their favour. As the track is expected to turn, Virat and his boys will we up for it and they'll look forward to creating history.

India's record in Port Elizabeth has not been the best, they even lost to Kenya at this very ground and also lost the last game they played over here against the hosts. They lost both the games chasing, but in this series, things have changed, and they have dominated the first three games and are 3-1 up in the series, with just one win away from creating history.

With two spinners in the playing eleven, Virat should definitely look to bat first if he wins the toss. With the track expected to turn and as Hardik is not having the best of series with the bat, the selection of Axar Patel won't be a bad idea.

Their middle order has been out of form in this series so far, the likes of Dhoni, Iyer and Hardik (if he plays) should try and get some runs. It won't be a bad idea if Dhoni comes in ahead of Iyer at no 5, as it will give him that extra few overs to get in before he starts playing his shots.
