India seek solutions to middle-order woes in dead rubber

 In only three days, even before India could completely get acclimated to the rhythm of 50-over cricket, the ODI series had gotten away from their grip. Luckily for them, there wasn't a ton in question, and very little will stay in question either in the last match of the series on Sunday.

The parade moves to Newlands in Cape Town for the third ODI, and for every one of the examples India appeared to have picked from their partners on the sluggish and turning wickets of Paarl, it may not be very useful in genuinely South African conditions.

An out of structure Bhuvneshwar Kumar however wouldn't see any problems the 62 kilometer travel down south west. He has looked a shade of his best self in conditions that haven't supported his bowling. Likewise, his speed accomplice Jasprit Bumrah who has been a piece of the relative multitude of challenges on the South African visit up to this point, hasn't forced himself enough in the one-day leg.

Yet, it has been as trying for South Africa's speed assault too, which is without two of its forefront choices - Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje. Lungi Ngidi and the remainder of their speed pack would be as energized for the series-ender, and desire to make a noteworthy commitment in what has been a progression of clinical exhibitions for the hosts.

South Africans don't have as many worries to address. Notwithstanding Aiden Markram's absence of runs, the batting unit has come great in the two games, thus have the left-arm team, who have beated their much-acclaimed Indian partners, who have neglected to strike enough in the center overs.

Having gained from the hosts a methodology more appropriate for slow conditions, India should once more adjust their arrangements as they hope to track down answers for their center over hardships.
