India opts to bat in Nagpur test against South Africa

Indian cricket team player Ravindra Jadeja celebrates the dismissal of South African player Kagiso Rabada during 2nd Test match between India and South Africa at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on November 14, 2015 in Bengaluru, India.

India won the toss and elected to bat first in the third Test against South Africa, in Nagpur today. The two sides will be hoping for a result after their previous encounter in Bangalore was washed out by rain. The match also gives South Africa the chance to bounce back in the four-game series, which stands 1-0 in India’s favour. South Africa are currently the number-one ranked Test team in the world, and haven’t lost an away series since 2006.
