The final match of the T20 World Cup 2024 between India and South Africa is on Barbados' pitch number 4. This Barbados pitch is quite different from the one on which Team India defeated Afghanistan in their first match of the Super-8 played here. During the T20 World Cup 2024, 2 matches have been played on pitch number 4. But none of them were either India's or South Africa's matches. This means that Barbados' pitch number 4 will be a new puzzle for both the teams, to solve which it is necessary to choose the playing eleven according to its mood.

So is Team India going to change after reaching the finals considering the pitch? Will there be a change in the playing eleven of the Indian team? In the 4 matches played from Super-8 to the semi-finals, Team India captain Rohit Sharma did not even touch the team's playing eleven.

Meaning, he did not make any changes in it. He was seen on the field with his 3 specialist spinners and 2 capable pacers. But, the stage of the final is big and the pitch is also new. To know whether there will be a change in the Indian playing eleven considering all this or not, it is first necessary to look at the 2 matches played on pitch number 4 in Barbados in the T20 World Cup 2024.

What happened first on Barbados' 'Pitch No. 4'?

Pitch number 4 of Barbados, on which the final of T20 World Cup 2024 is to be played between India and South Africa, has previously played matches of Namibia vs Oman and Scotland vs England. In both these matches, in the match played between Namibia and Oman, 11 wickets were taken by fast bowlers while 5 wickets were taken by spinners. The match also ended in a thrilling manner. After the score was level, this match was decided by a super over, in which Namibia won.

The match played between Scotland and England could not be completed on pitch number 4 in Barbados because it was washed away by rain.

But, before the rain interrupted the match, Scotland, batting first, had scored 90 runs in 10 overs without losing any wicket.

There can be a better contest between bat and ball

Meaning, a better contest between bat and ball can be seen on Barbados' pitch number 4. Because, this ground is helpful for both batsmen and bowlers. Seeing the mood of pitch number 4, it does not seem that Team India is going to change for the final. Meaning, the same team can be seen playing, which has been playing since Super-8.

Probable playing XI of team India

With no change expected for the final of the T20 World Cup 2024 against South Africa, the possible playing XI of Team India is as follows.
