The thriller between India and South Africa returns today at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam. The venue has already generated excitement, especially considering Virat Kohli’s record here. Ticket demand saw a sharp rise after his Ranchi century, and another packed stadium is expected.

A major talking point ahead of the match has been India’s extraordinary run of losing 20 consecutive tosses. All eyes were on whether the streak would finally end and it did. India won the toss for the final match of the three-game ODI series, breaking the unlikely sequence. The toss could once again prove decisive, especially with dew expected in the evening. India chose to bowl first to make the most of the conditions that influenced the previous two matches.
