South Africa win toss and field against India

South Africa captain Graeme Smith won the toss and elected to field against India in a Group C World Twenty20 match at the Beausejour Stadium here on Sunday.

India made two changes from the side that beat Afghanistan by seven wickets here on Saturday.

Opening batsman Gautam Gambhir was ruled out with stomach illness and his place was taken by Dinesh Karthik.

And, in a tactical switch, leg-spinner Piyush Chawla replaced fast bowler Zaheer Khan.

This was South Africa’s first match of the tournament and the Proteas opted to use the big-hitting Loots Bosman as captain Graeme Smith’s partner at the top of the order.
