Cape Town, Feb 7 (IBNS): South Africa won the toss and opted to bowl first against India in the third ODI match of the series here on Wednesday.

India are already 2-0 up in the series.

South Africa have not only lost battles on the park but also two major batsmen, AB de Villiers and skipper Faf du Plessis, who are presently out of the squad due to injury.

Both sides are given below:

SA XI: H Amla, A Markram, H Klaasen, JP Duminy, D Miller, K Zondo , C Morris, A Phehlukwayo, K Rabada, L Ngidi, I Tahir
