South Africa and India will face off in the final T20I of their four-match series at Wanderers. Here's Wisden's pick of the betting odds for the game.
South Africa v India 4th T20I: Who will win?
India headed into the third match with the series tied 1-1. They scored 219-6, courtesy of Tilak Varma’s maiden T20I century, a 56-ball 107*. When defending, Marco Jansen’s 54 off 17 gave India a scare, but they eventually won the match by 11 runs.
Batery offers a 2.15 return for every pound bet for South Africa's victory, compared to India's 1.70, making the visitors the clear favourite to win the contest and level the series.
South Africa v India 4th T20I: Which team will have the highest opening partnership?
Twice in the last two matches, India lost their first wicket for no run. That’s because Sanju Samson, who slammed a record-breaking century in the first T20I, scored two consecutive ducks. On the other hand, South Africa’s opening pair of Ryan Rickleton and Reeza Hendricks have comparatively given a steady return.
However, South Africa's openers, priced at 2.00 on Batery, will still provide better returns compared to India's, who are priced at 1.80 for every pound spent on Batery.
South Africa v India 4th T20I: Which side will hit most fours and sixes?
As far as boundary fours are concerned, there is little to differentiate between the two sides as per Batery. South Africa are priced at 1.80 to hit more, with India a slightly riskier shot at 1.88.
In terms of sixes, India are slightly ahead of South Africa with the likes of Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Tilak Varma, and Abhishek Sharma among others in their ranks. They are priced by Batery at 1.93, compared to 2.03 for South Africa.
