India bowl v South Africa

Indian captain, Suryakumar Yadav, won the toss and chose to bowl first in the second of five T20 Internationals at the Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium in Chandigarh on Thursday.

South Africa made three changes to the starting XI which suffered a humiliating 101-run loss in the opening game in Cuttack on Tuesday in which the Proteas were dismissed for just 74, their lowest total in the format.

Tristan Stubbs was replaced by veteran Reeza Hendricks, Keshav Maharaj made way for George Linde and Ottneil Baartman was brought in for Anrich Nortje.

India, unsurprisingly, retained the same starting XI.

INDIA: Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Tilak Varma, Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Jitesh Sharma (wkt), Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh

SOUTH AFRICA: Reeza Hendricks, Quinton de Kock (wkt), Aiden Markram (captain), Dewald Brevis, David Miller, Donovan Ferreira, George Linde, Marco Jansen, Lutho Sipamla, Lungi Ngidi, Ottneil Baartman
