Tabraiz Shamsi will be key for South Africa in the game [AP Photos]
Tabraiz Shamsi (SA): Tabraiz Shamsi is in excellent form right now, So far in four matches he has picked-up 11 wickets with an economy rate of 7.37. In last match, he grabbed three wickets against Afghanistan and he will be a good pick for the C/VC option for this game.
Rohit Sharma (IND): Indian skipper, Rohit Sharma has been in red-hot form in the last few games, he has scored 248 runs with a strike rate of 155.97 in seven games so far. In last match, he has scored 57 runs and would look to get another big knock to get India off to a flyer in the Finale.
Scenario: If India Field First
Jasprit Bumrah (IND): Jasprit Bumrah is an all-time great in T20 cricket and always considered as a big match player. So far, in seven games he has taken 10 wickets with an economy rate of 4.13, which is best so far in this tournament. He will be the key player in this match.

Hardik Pandya (IND): Hardik Pandya is an excellent all-rounder and he is currently in great form. So far in seven matches he has picked-up eight wickets and scored 139 runs. He is a great fit for this category.
SA vs IND High Risk, High Rewards
Quinton de Kock (SA): The veteran wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock has been in a decent form with the bat so far, scoring 204 runs in 8 innings with 2 half-centuries, he is also the leading run-scorer for South Africa in the tournament so far. His batting position and inconsistent performance makes him a risky yet worthy choice for this game.
Kuldeep Yadav (IND): Kuldeep Yadav's performance with the ball is commendable in this tournament so far. He has bagged 10 wickets in just 4 innings with an economy rate of 5.88. He is also a perfect fit for this category.
SA vs IND Stay Aways
Reeza Hendricks (SA): The South African opener has not been in the best of forms. Selecting Reeza Hendricks as a captain or vice-captain might be risky for the game.
Shivam Dube (IND): The Indian middle-order batter has not delivered with the bat in the tournament and the team has not used his bowling skills. It is better to stay away from Shivam Dube as the C/VC for this game.
