SA vs IND Pitch Report

The track at Centurion's SuperSport park provides amazing assistance to the pacers; however, the batters will also have an opportunity to make a good start in the first innings. The teams have mostly struggled to chase the target here in the fourth innings of the match. So, the team winning the toss will like to bat first to put the opponent in a run-chase.
