3rd T20I: India win toss, opt to bowl against South Africa in Indore

INDORE: India skipper Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to field against South Africa in the third and final T20 International on Tuesday.

Hosts India made three changes, bringing Shreyas Iyer, Umesh Yadav and Mohammed Siraj into the playing XI in place of Virat Kohli, KL Rahul and Arshdeep Singh.

While Kohli and Rahul have been rested, Arshdeep missed out due to "issues with his back", which, however, are not serious, according to Rohit.

Anrich Nortje has been rested from the last South African playing XI, paving the way for Dwaine Pretorius' entry.

India have already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
