if the windies lose this match then south africa and india automatically qualify for the final.

There are clear skies around the ground today and really whoever wins the toss can bat or bowl first this pitch is a bowler/batsman friendly wicket and this pitch is expected to last 100 overs

India won the toss and elected to bat

Will both SA and India experiment with anything new for this match Jazz

well india will still have their opening pair tendulkar and sehwag playing as they are yet to make a big score against the south africa. south africa will have its strongest teams.

the matches aginst windies both teams will be experimenting with different players. so example when india play west indies they will make changes like to bring in mongia, nehra etc. same with south africa wen they play windies. then in the final both teams will have their strongest teams
