Nagpur: Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and chose to bat against South Africa in their World Cup clash at the VCA stadium in Nagpur on Saturday.
India have brought in Munaf Patel in place of Piyush Chawla.
After a couple of not-so-convincing performances against Ireland and the Netherlands respectively, India's much vaunted batting line-up is expected to regroup as they face the mighty South Africans, who on the other hand would be itching to get back to winning ways after losing to England by six runs.
Although India have been unbeaten in the four matches so far, the only time they have been really put to test was against England in Bangalore when they could only manage to tie the game after scoring an imposing 338.
This match will be an important one for India as their batsmen will face the current best new ball pair of Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel.
On otherhand, South Africa are not risking Imran Tahir, so Johan Botha makes a return to the side. AB de Villiers will not be keeping wicket, Morne van Wyk will do that job today as well.
