India vs South Africa 5th T20I Match Prediction: A rare all-format tour these days, South Africa’s tour of India 2025 is set to come to an end on Friday in Ahmedabad, where the five-match T20I series will be decided.
The IND vs SA 4th T20I in Lucknow was abandoned owing to excessive fog. India lead the series 2-1 and cannot lose the series, which will make it their 15th consecutive unbeaten T20I series or tournament, a run that began in August 2023.
India vs South Africa 5th T20I Match Prediction team news:
The major news from the previous T20I in Lucknow was that Shubman Gill has a foot injury and was supposed to miss that match, with Sanju Samson all but certain to open. However, it remains to be seen now whether Gill is fit for the Ahmedabad T20I or whether Samson will finally get his chance.
Meanwhile, Jasprit Bumrah was back in the squad in Lucknow after missing the third T20I due to personal reasons.
South Africa have rung in plenty of changes in this series as they continue to experiment in order to find their best personnel in white-ball cricket. Expect some more changes in the fifth T20I, with David Miller likely to slot back in the lineup.
