DHAKA: Indian batsmen are facing South Africa bowling in ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 Pool B match at Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne Sunday morning.
The match began at 9:30am Bangladesh time.
Earlier India captain MS Dhoni won the toss and decided to bat first.
India are playing the match with the same eleven that played against Pakistan. South Africa brought one change as Wayne Parnell is in for Farhaan Behardien. They have a potentially short batting line-up in a bid to make early inroads for India.
Previously, both teams played a match each and won against their respective rivals. In their first matches, India defeated Pakistan and South Africa took on Zimbabwe.
