India and South Africa will square off in the third and final ODI at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. After losing the first game by 9 runs in Lucknow, Team India made a strong comeback in the third ODI, courtesy some fine knocks from Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan, to beat the Proteas.

India vs South Africa 3rd ODI: Rain threat over series decider

It will be an emotional homecoming for Dhawan as captain but inclement weather in Delhi could disrupt plansNEW DELHI: Shikhar Dhawan slogged for years in the anonymity of domestic cricket. The Ferozeshah Kotla was his home during those anxious years waiting to break into the Indian team. Two months away from turning 37, Dhawan has landed in Delhi as captain of the Indian team, although one widely referred to as a 'second-string' one. To his credit, this team has held its own against a full-strength South African team, heading into the third and final ODI with a 1-1 scoreline.

India's Predicted XI vs South Africa, 3rd ODI: Will The Shikhar Dhawan-Led Team Stick To The Winning Combination?

India and South Africa meet each other for the deciding third ODI match at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. While the Proteas had won the first game, which was reduced to 40 overs-a-side, by 9 runs, the hosts bounced back and registered a dominating 7-wicket win in the second game. Indian bowlers did a commendable job in the second match, especially in the slog overs. However, it is the poor form of India's openers -- Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill -- that would be troubling the side.

We have given Ishant Sharma an additional responsibility and he is enjoying it: Delhi head coach ahead of new season

Ishant Sharma is putting the hard yards in the nets and has wholeheartedly committed to the extra responsibility of mentoring the Delhi pacers in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy beginning on Tuesday, team's new head coach Abhay Sharma said on Monday. A stalwart of 105 Tests, the 34-year-old will be probably making one last attempt for an India comeback when the domestic season gets underway for the Delhi team with their T20 opener against Manipur in Jaipur on Tuesday. The build up to the new season has not been ideal for Delhi who appointed former India U-19 and India A coach Sharma as head coach only 10 days ago.

Srihari Nataraj Claims Sixth Gold In 100m Freestyle At National Games

Olympian Srihari Nataraj ended his campaign in the National Games swimming competition with his sixth gold medal in the men's 100m freestyle at the Sardar Patel Aquatics Complex in Rajkot on Saturday. Nataraj won in 50.41 seconds, a new National Games record. Through the week, the swimmer from Karnataka watched his senior Sajan Prakash (Kerala) claim five gold, two silver and a bronze medal. On Saturday, Nataraj stormed to a 100m freestyle win with Sajan finishing seventh. He accomplished his mission of claiming the two freestyle sprint gold medals to add to the two backstroke titles besides anchoring Karnataka relay squads to two gold.

Exclusive: 'Exciting times lie ahead, would love to be part of any World Cup team', says Shubman Gill

World Cup, scheduled to be held in India, Shubman Gill will in all probability be one of the first-choice picks. The 23-year-old's game is modelled perfectly for ODIs and Tests and it is very good to see him not being pushed into T20Is, despite him being a regular in the IPL. He is yet to play a T20I match. The tournament that someone like Shubman will be eyeing the most right now is of course the next edition of the ODI World Cup next year.
