South Africa tour of India, 2025: In 2025, India will face South Africa in the fourth T20I match of South Africa's tour of India. India has performed well in the T20 series so far and leads South Africa 2-1.

In the previous match, the Indian bowlers delivered a brilliant performance, bowling South Africa out for 117 runs, after which India comfortably won the match by 7 wickets. Arshdeep Singh was the Player of the Match for India, taking two wickets for 13 runs in four overs.

South Africa's performance has been disappointing, with poor batting leading to losses in the first and third matches of the series. Even in the last match, apart from captain Aiden Markram's 61 runs, no other batsman performed well. This will be a do-or-die match for South Africa, which they will desperately want to win, and for that, they will need to perform well in both batting and bowling.

IND vs SA 4th T20 Pitch Report

The pitch at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is slow and made of black soil, which means the ball doesn't bounce much, favoring spinners. The surface grips the ball, making strokeplay difficult and benefiting bowlers who can vary their pace and line and length. The average first-innings score is between 151 and 165, with teams successfully defending totals around 160 approximately 60% of the time.

India's spin duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy are expected to perform well in the middle overs. The team winning the toss will likely choose to bowl first, as chasing becomes difficult without dew; a low-scoring, exciting match is expected, with the score likely to be below 170.

Who will win todays 4th T20 match between India vs South Africa?

Aaj ka SA vs IND match kon jeetega: India are the favorites in today's fourth T20 match against South Africa at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow, but the result could be close. India lead the series and are clearly in good momentum after a superb bowling performance in the last match.

• The slow, spin-friendly pitch in Lucknow suits India's attack and their home batsmen better than South Africa's, who have more fast bowlers in their team.
• Early wickets taken by South Africa's seamers or a big performance from their top order (Markram, Brevis, Stubbs) in the powerplay could change the course of the match.
• A challenging batting pitch means that one or two early wickets on either side could swing the match, so even though India are the favorites, victory is not guaranteed.
