Temba Bavuma, SA's regular skipper, has been ruled out of the series owing to an elbow injury sustained during the recently concluded T20 series in India. David Miller replaces him as captain in the T20 set-up, while Keshav Maharaj will stand in as the ODI skipper.
The police were alerted by members of the public to the incident at Scenery Park, about three km from the city centre.

There was always a forecast for rain but people considered it to be a passing shower. India lost the toss and was put to bat first. Ishan Kishan and Ruturaj Gaikwad both were dismissed by Lungi Ngidi as India was reduced to 28-2 by the fourth over.
Captain Pant's tactics and unpredictable bowling changes have not contributed to India's winning cause and it will be interesting to see how the team comes out of this turmoil. Adding on to these woes, he has now made this unwanted streak of losing five consecutive tosses. Every time Pant has walked out for the coin-toss, he has lost it and India has been invited to bat first.
The down and out Indian team who were the favorites had to play out of their skin and back themselves to get back in the series. Coach Rahul Dravid and Rishabh Pant backed the eleven and the men in blue repaid their faith by leveling the series 2-2 after the Vizag T20I.
This game also marks Chahal returning to the Chinnaswamy as he wasn't retained by Royal Challengers Bangalore in this year's IPL. The leg spinner who knows the venue pretty well further added that the ground is very small and he tries to vary his lengths.
Before the Vizag and Rajkot T20Is, not many had given the men in blue any kind of chances and were backing the Proteas to win the match, but what followed after has put the series on line for both the teams.
The tour is set to begin on June 23 and will end on 7th July.
It is monsoon season in India and the chances of rain interrupting the action stands at 76 percent. The temperature can range between 0 and 26°C. The wind will be flowing from the west at 10-15 kmph.
The Proteas who had a lead of 2-0 before the Vizag game might have fancied their chances to win the series straight up. But as the characteristics of the Indian team goes, they have come back pretty strongly in this series.
The men in blue were hailed as the favorites and were expected to win the series comfortably. But little did anybody know what South Africa's intentions were. They brought their A-game to the table and now India is left reeling on 2-1 in the five-match T20I series.
Irrespective of the result that comes out of this match, team India and Pant will expect to end this bad run and win the toss in Bengaluru and proceed with things according to their plans.
