New Delhi: After successfully chasing 270 runs in Durban in the series opener, Indian skipper Virat Kohli won the toss and opted to field first in the second ODI in Centurion on Sunday.
The high-on confidence Indian side will aim to exert pressure on the hosts by taking a 2-0 series lead. Proteas will be without their regular skipper Faf du Plessis who was ruled out due to entire limited-over series due to a finger Injury.
