South Africa suffered a loss in their previous T20I series against Pakistan and would look to get back to winning ways courtesy of a win in the first T20I against India.
SA is expected to open the batting with Quinton de Kock and Reeza Hendricks, both of whom would be entrusted to get the team off to a good start in the first six overs.
Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Aiden Markram (c), Tristan Stubbs, Tony de Zorzi, Dewald Brevis, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Corbin Bosch
When it comes to the middle order, it comprises the likes of captain Aiden Markram, Tristan Stubbs, Dewald Brevis, and experienced batter David Miller, all of whom have the ability to turn the match in their team's favour.
As was the case in the ODI series, South Africa will have the option of playing with freedom, something which T20I cricket demands due to the depth they possess in the batting lineup, which extends till number eight.
Having said that, the onus will be on the top five batters to score the bulk of the runs for the team to get the opposition bowlers under pressure.
The likes of Anrich Nortje, Lungi Ngidi, Marco Jansen, and Corbin Bosch will take care of the team's fast bowling department.
All things said, the team management would bank on their bowlers to restrict the Indian batters through some intelligent bowling.
