India Skipper KL Rahul has decided to field first in the series deciding third ODI against South Africa in Visakhapatnam.

Rahul said, "We are going to bowl first. We trained here last night, there was dew and it didn't come in early as Ranchi and Raipur. We want to chase the total and see how we can bowl first. Looks like a good wicket. We are really happy with the way we have played in the last two games. Considering the conditions, we have done well and there are a lot of positives to take. Not many things we are looking to change. One change. Washington misses out, Tilak comes in."

South Africa Skipper Temba Bavuma said, "We would have bowled first. A good start upfront will set it up for the middle order. It's been entertaining. The crowd has come out. Hope today's another thrilling one. Two changes. Rickelton and Baartman come in. They (Burger and de Zorzi) will be out for a couple of weeks."
