Matthew Breetzke looked pretty good in the last game and played a brilliant cameo of 16 off 7, but he was unfortunate and got run out due to a misunderstanding. He was looking good for a big score and to take his team home. With the missed opportunity in the last game, Breetzke will look to do well in the next game.
2. Reeza Hendricks :

Reeza Hendricks played a brilliant innings and gave his team a good start, which helped them chase a big target easily. He made 49 off 27 balls with 8 fours and one six. The right-handed batter has been scoring runs whenever he gets the chance, and he will be an important wicket for his team in the final game.
3. Aiden Markram (c) :

South African skipper Aiden Markram had a pretty brilliant game on Tuesday. He bowled well with figures of 1/29 and then scored a quick 30 off 17 balls with the bat. The skipper has been in great form and can take the game away on his own. Being a skipper, he will be looking to take his team to a series win.
4. Heinrich Klaasen (wk) :

Heinrich Klaasen missed the opportunity in the second game and got out cheaply for 7 off 5. But he is a kind of player who can single-handedly win the game on his day. India will hope that they can contain him in the final game because he can be a game-changer for South Africa.
5. David Miller :

David Miller played a small but important innings of 17 off 12 in the last game and helped the team reach the target. The left-hander’s presence is very important for the team as he is their most experienced batter who has batted in pressure situations throughout his career and can perform when the team requires him the most.
6. Tristan Stubbs :

Tristan Stubbs is a pretty exciting batter and has the ability to shift gears when it is required. He remained unbeaten and scored a 12-ball 14 in the chase in the second game. Stubbs can bat anywhere in the order, and his ability to attack spin and pace makes him a difficult batter to bowl at.
7. Andile Phehlukwayo :

Andile Phehlukwayo came and samshed a four and six to seal the deal for South Africa. He made 10 off 4 and took his team home. Earlier, he also performed well with the ball. The all-rounder is a pretty capapable hitter down the order and can bowl some overs of pace, which gives great balance to the team.
8. Marco Jansen :

Marco Jansen is another pace-bowling all-rounder who is pretty important to this team across formats. He has been a pretty consistent player for his team. He bowled well and provided his team with the first breakthrough. That’s what will be his role, to provide some early breakthroughs to the team and put India under pressure.
9. Keshav Maharaj :

Keshav Maharaj is expected to return to the team after getting a rest from the last match. He is in good form and will be a pretty effective bowler in Johannesburg. The veteran spinner bowls wicket-to-wicket, which makes it hard to score a runs against him. He will be very difficult to avoid for his team.
10. Gerald Coetzee :

Gerald Coetzee was the pick of the bowlers in the second T20I from both sides. He ended up taking 3/32 and made a big impact with the ball. Not to forget, he took two consecutive wickets before the rain break stopped the game. Hence, he will be on a hat-trick when he comes to bowl in the third game on Thursday.
11. Lizaad Williams :

Lizaad Williams also had a pretty decent outing in the second game, with bowling figures of 1/32. He bowled some loose bowls, which were taken for boundaries. He will be looking to bowl in tight lengths and do well in the second game. Williams requires a good performance to stay in contention for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Hence, he will look to do well.
