India are currently 2-1 ahead in the 5-match T20I series against South Africa and will aim to clinch the series this Friday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. This victory would be India’s 14th consecutive T20I series victory. Both teams enter this match following the rather disappointing and somewhat strange cancellation of the 4th T20I due to heavy fog in Lucknow. The teams were ready to play but the draw never took place because the officials decided to let the time drop to 21:45 (IST) before stopping the match despite thickening fog. This abandonment has dashed South Africa’s hopes of winning the series, but they still have a chance to equalize if they secure a win in Ahmedabad.
Like before the fourth T20I, all eyes will be on India captain Suryakumar Yadav. Suryakumar Yadav has been struggling with his form of late but he is vital because of his leadership and India have won over 80% of the matches under his captaincy. With the T20 World Cup approaching early next year, the Men in Blue will be eagerly awaiting their captain to regain his batting ability.
