The Indian team would be up against South Africa in an all-important clash at the Optus Stadium in Perth, Western Australia. The temperatures and playing conditions are going to be very different at the Optus compareD to what Indi have experienced in their previous two games in Melbourne and Sydney respectively. Thus it might as well affect the team selection. 

Here's how the Playing 11 of India and South Africa would look like

With Rahul Dravid as coach and Rohit Sharma as captain, one thing that comes in a side is stability and therefore to expect a change in the Indian side would be too much. Some experts are saying that Yuzvendra Chahal might come in place of Ravichandran Ashwin in the playing 11. But, the South African side is filled with left-handers and hence taking Ashwin out would not be a wise decision and hence unlikely to be made. Other than that, expecting Rishabh Pant in the side in place of KL Rahul is also too early. 

As for South Africa, they will go with four searing fats bowlers in Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Wayne Parnell and either Marco Jansen or Lungi Ngidi, with Jansen being a preference as he bowls left-arm pace which has troubled the Indian top order. Keshav Maharaj with his left arm orthodox would be the lone spinner in the team and Tabraiz Shamsi would have to sit out.
