Cape Town/IBNS: Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli won the toss and elected to bat first against South Africa in the third and final Test here on Tuesday.

India have made two changes to their side.

Kohli, who missed the last Test due to upper back spasm, has come in for Hanuma Vihari while Umesh Yadav has replaced injured Mohammed Siraj.

South Africa have kept their side, which earned them a victory in the second Test, unchanged.

The three-match series is evenly poised at 1-1.
