- 19:49 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Samson needs to bounce backFor Sanju Samson, he would like to forget that he is turning into Marco Jansen's 'bunny' after back-to-back failures. Samson started the series with a sensational century, but his consecutive ducks in the last two matches must have put the pressure on him.
- 19:39 (IST)IND vs SA Live: Will India hand debut to Dayal or Vysakh?India have used 12 out of their 15 players in the first three games and it would be interesting to see if one among the two uncapped pacers Yash Dayal or Vysakh Vijaykumar gets a debut cap in case the pitch warrants an extra specialist speedster.
- 19:18 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Curious case of Rinku (1/4)Rinku Singh, one of the finest exponents of T20 cricket has suddenly gone off the boil in the past few months, reasons of which aren't exactly clear and it wouldn't be lost on the skipper and interim head coach VVS Laxman. On the face of it, it seems that his batting position and use as a floater at number six and seven isn't helping the Aligarh man's cause. The next T20 World Cup in India is still some distance away in 2026 and Surya, as a skipper, has enough time to dissect and put things back on track for the man, who is too precious to be lost due to lack of clarity.
- 19:18 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Curious case of Rinku (2/4)In the current series, Rinku came in at number six in two games and number seven in another and has managed just 28 runs. The scores 11, 9 and 8 shouldn't be taken in isolation looking at where he is coming in to bat but when the number of balls (34) he has taken to the score runs is taken into consideration, it becomes worrisome. Even during the last IPL Rinku got to play a total of 113 balls in 15 games for KKR: roughly 7.5 deliveries per game.
- 19:17 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Curious case of Rinku (3/4)In the current series, Rinku came in at number six in two games and number seven in another and has managed just 28 runs. The scores 11, 9 and 8 shouldn't be taken in isolation looking at where he is coming in to bat but when the number of balls (34) he has taken to the score runs is taken into consideration, it becomes worrisome. Even during the last IPL Rinku got to play a total of 113 balls in 15 games for KKR: roughly 7.5 deliveries per game.
- 19:17 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Curious case of Rinku (4/4)Most of Rinku's better efforts have come when he has batted at number five but in a line-up where Sanju Samson is settling as an opener and Tilak Varma has staked claim as a No. 3, it might be difficult for Rinku to be promoted ahead of Hardik Pandya. It is an issue that team think-tank would do better to solve at earliest.
- 19:06 (IST)IND vs SA Live: A venue India loveThe Wanderers 'Bull Ring' has always been a happy hunting ground for India, where they won the 2007 T20 World Cup final against Pakistan. Even during the previous T20I series a year back, skipper Suryakumar Yadav's last international hundred till date came at this very stadium and that too in a winning cause. The Indian captain, who enjoys a staggering victory percentage of 81.25, having come up trumps in 13 out of the 16 matches, would like to do one better compared to the last series in the Rainbow Nation which had ended in a 1-1 draw with one game being washed out.
- 19:03 (IST)IND vs SA Live: India seek better show from battersCenturies by Sanju Samson and Tilak Varma on either side of an inept batting performance has kept India's nose ahead in the series and team would want a more collective batting effort to clinch it 3-1. The likes of Suryakumar Yadav and Rinku Singh need to make it count with the bat this time.
- 18:30 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: Arshdeep eyes massive record!Arshdeep Singh, who has claimed 92 T20I wickets from 59 matches, will aim to become India's leading wicket-taker in the format. If Arshdeep manages to take a five-wicket haul, he will surpass leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal (96 T20I wickets) for the record.
- 18:24 (IST)India vs South Africa Live: India eye series win!Team India will be going into the deciding fourth T20I against South Africa at The Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg with an aim to register another bilateral series victory. India lead 2-1 in the series. They won the first and third T20I and lost the second game.
