T20 World Cup 2024 Final India Playing 11: The Indian team will play the final match of T20 World Cup 2024 against South Africa today i.e. on Saturday, June 29. There has been no change in the playing eleven of Team India captained by Rohit Sharma since the last three matches. Rohit made the last change in the team's playing eleven in the first match of Super-8 played against Afghanistan, in which Kuldeep Yadav replaced Mohammed Siraj. Now in the title match, there can be a big change in the form of Shivam Dube in Team India's playing eleven. 

Team India's changes in the final against South Africa can also change the opening pair. In fact, captain Rohit Sharma can exclude Shivam Dubey from India's playing eleven for the final match. Dubey has been a part of the playing eleven since the first match of the World Cup. 

All-rounder Dube has played only as a batsman so far. He bowled only 1 over in the match against America. Dube has not been able to leave a special mark in batting. He has definitely hit some big shots against spinners, but has also looked quite helpless against fast bowlers. 

Jaiswal may get a chance in place of Dubey, Kohli may come at number three 

Considering Dubey's poor form, Yashasvi Jaiswal may get a chance in the final. Jaiswal has not played a single match in this T20 World Cup so far. If Jaiswal enters the playing eleven, he can come to open with Rohit Sharma. At the same time, Virat Kohli, who has been opening till now, can come to his old number three. Now it will be interesting to see whether Rohit Sharma makes changes in the playing eleven for the final or not. 

India's probable playing XI in T20 World Cup 2024 Final

Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah.
