Virat Kohli will be quite keen to rope in Ravichandran Ashwin in the playing eleven. If Ashwin finds his place in the final eleven, then Umesh Yadav will be opted out.

Umesh has been very expensive throughout this tournament, and it will surely reflect in the selection process.

Even though, J P Duminy is not going through the nicest patches of his career; the left-handed batsman will find his spot in the South African playing eleven. Skipper AB de Villiers may bring in Andile Phehlukwayo, and he will play the place of Wayne Parnell.

Sometimes, South Africa may take a bold decision by bringing in spinner Keshav Maharaj to the lineup.
