Not Abhishek Sharma, this player may be out, India’s playing 11 will be like this against South Africa

India probable playing XI vs South Africa: The Indian team is riding on the chariot of victory with consecutive wins so far in this T20 World Cup. Today the match between India and South Africa in Super 8 is to be played at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After this, matches are to be played against Zimbabwe and West Indies. Everyone’s eyes will be on which playing eleven Captain Suryakumar Yadav will field with in the match with South Africa. In this tournament, Abhishek Sharma is continuously getting out without opening the account, hence the question in everyone’s mind is whether he will play against South Africa.

Abhishek Sharma disappointed

If we talk about Indian opener batsman Abhishek Sharma, then this player was in great form before the tournament but he has worried everyone by getting out for zero in the last 3 consecutive matches. Going ahead with an out of form player in important matches like Super 8 is not without danger but the problem is that Abhishek Sharma’s alternative Sanju Samson is also not scoring runs. When Abhishek fell ill, Samson got a chance but he could not capitalize on it well.

Akshar Patel may enter

If we talk about bowling, Indian bowling has also not been completely correct. Varun Chakraborty definitely took up the responsibility in the middle overs but the rest of the bowlers were seen struggling. In fact, many times the bowlers have wasted runs unnecessarily. Amidst all this, a change is considered almost certain. There is every possibility of Akshar Patel playing against South Africa. This means Washington Sundar can go out. Axar Patel provides control, left-arm variation and useful batting in the lower order. This balance is necessary against a team like South Africa.
