India went back to losing the toss under a new captain in the first T20I against South Africa, after winning the toss in the series decider in the ODIs. As expected, Aiden Markram chose to chase with dew expected to play a role in the night. Suryakumar Yadav wasn't too fussed, expecting having to bowl with the wet ball.
India welcomed back Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya to the XI after injury-forced breaks. "The body feels perfectly fine physically, I spent some time at the COE [BCCI's Centre of Excellence]," Gill said. "Perfectly fine physically and mentally feeling ready. I had a disc bulge in my neck which was hitting the nerves. When I went there [to bat in the Kolkata Test], I had a bit of a spasm before the start of play in the morning. And when I played the game, I got a bulge which hit the nerve and had to go the hospital for a couple of days but recovered well after that."
