After a successful T20I series against Australia, India will now be hosting South Africa for a three-match T20I series, followed by as many ODIs. The Men in Blue are in great form as they very recently clinched a series win against the reigning world champions Australia in the 20-over format. The Proteas had last toured India in June, where the series ended in a 2-2 draw after the decider was washed out.
South Africa has also been in good form recently, as they’ve won four consecutive matches, of the last five T20I games that they have played. They bagged a 2-0 win against Ireland in August after defeating England by 2-1 in July. This will also be the third time that the two teams will face each other in the ongoing calendar year.
While South Africa has announced the squad for both the T20Is and the ODIs, India is yet to announce the ODI squad. As for the T20Is, the Indian team will be led by Rohit Sharma, whereas Temba Bavuma will be in charge of the Proteas. With the T20 World Cup 2022 approaching, both teams would look to give in their best.
When the two teams locked horns in June, India was without the services of senior players Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Jasprit Bumrah among others. But now that they’re back in the side and in good form too, the upcoming contest will be even more intriguing. The two in-form teams will be going up against each other on September 28 for the first of the three T20Is.
