Aiden Markram

Aiden Markram might be another middle-order batsman for South Africa in the 3rd ODI against India. The right-handed batsman got out for a duck in the 1st ODI.

David Miller

David Miller will be a lower-order batsman for the team in IND vs SA 3rd ODI. The left-handed batsman scored unbeaten 35 runs in the last match. In the opening game, he shattered unbeaten 75 runs. Miller was unbeaten in both games and thus owns an incredible form currently.

Keshav Maharaj (C)

Temba Bavuma was unwell in the 2nd ODI and hence he might miss the IND vs SA 3rd ODI as well. Keshav Maharaj, who led the team in the 2nd ODI, will again lead the team in the final ODI clash. The left-arm spinner picked 1 wicket in the 1st ODI and went wicketless in the 2nd. He has bowled at a very good economy of 4.65 so far. He will be one of the spinners for the team.

Bjorn Fortuin

Bjorn Fortuin might again play as a spinner for South Africa in the final game as a replacement for Tabraiz Shamsi. The latter was unfit for the 2nd ODI and might be rested in the next game as well since he needs to get fit for T20 World Cup 2022. The left-arm spinner Fortuin gave a decent performance in the 2nd ODI, picking 1 wicket in his 9 overs at an economy of 5.80.

Kagiso Rabada

Kagiso Rabada might be another pacer for South Africa in the 3rd ODI. The right-arm pacer picked 2 wickets in the 1st ODI and 1 wicket in the 2nd ODI. He is the strongest pacer for the team in the series. He has also bowled at a good economy of 4.50 and 5.90 in both games.
