India vs South Africa LIVE Cricket Score, 4th T20I: IND will take on SA at The Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg

IND vs SA 4th T20I Suryakumar Yadav’s India will take on Aiden Markram’s South Africa in the final T20I on Friday at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. The visiting side has a 2-1 lead after clinching a close win at the Centurion in the last game on the back of Tilak Varma’s blistering ton.

In addition to Tilak, Abhishek Sharma too stuck form with a brilliant half-century. With two scores over 200 in the series, Indian batting is looking sorted going into the final game. However, Varun Chakarvarthy after a couple of brilliant spells in two games was taken apart in the last game, and with him conceding runs Indian bowling looked vulnerable.
