India vs South Africa, it's the battle of the giants, it's the battle of the rotating
00:03
chart toppers, it's the battle of best batting lineup vs best bowling lineup.
00:09
Some are already calling it the dress rehearsal of a World Cup final, so a lot to look forward
00:13
to and I think India's might will be tested by South Africa.
00:17
South Africa, when they bat up front, when they win the toss and bat first particularly,
00:22
they are absolutely lethal and brutal.
00:24
Their bowling has come good as well.
00:27
And so, what should India do then if they win the toss?
00:30
I'm sure that they want to drag South Africa in that defensive frame of mind and get them
00:35
chasing because couple of times, once against Pakistan and then that game against Netherlands,
00:40
they felt absolutely nervous chasing a modest score.
00:44
So, it all depends on the conditions.
00:47
Conditions at Eden Garden suggest that the ball will have something extra for the spinners.
00:52
India is playing 11, I don't think India will tinker with their playing 11.
00:56
South Africa on the other hand, if the conditions offer spin, can include Tabrez Shamsi, who's
01:02
a magician, left arm wrestler and he can do the job extremely well for South Africa.
01:08
Now, there's another special occasion on that day.
01:12
Virat Kohli will celebrate his birthday and all the people in India, all over the world
01:19
and especially who will gather there in good numbers at Eden Garden would be hoping that
01:24
he's able to break Sachin Tendulkar's record or equal it in fact with a 100, get to 49
01:30
and before the World Cup is over, get to his 50th ODI 100.
01:33
Lot to look forward to.
