Get ready for an exhilarating clash as South Africa (SA) faces India (IND) in the 1st Test of the India tour of South Africa 2023, set to ignite the SuperSport Park Cricket Stadium in Centurion. This 2-match Test series in South Africa sets the stage for an intense battle where India slightly leads the head-to-head battle against South Africa in the last 5 years.

South Africa enters this fixture on the back of a victorious Test series against West Indies, triumphing with a resounding 2-0 victory. In their last match, South Africa dominated, securing a 284-run win against the West Indies. A stellar performance saw South Africa posting 320 runs for the loss of 10 wickets in their 1st innings and bundling out West Indies for 251 runs. Temba Bavuma's 172 runs, complemented by Aiden Markram's 96 runs, powered South Africa. Gerald Coetzee's three-wicket haul contributed significantly to West Indies' dismissal for a mere 106 runs.

India, in their last Test series against West Indies, emerged victorious with a 1-0 win and a drawn match. In the last match, India amassed 438 runs for the loss of 10 wickets in their 1st innings while restricting West Indies to 255 runs. In their 2nd innings, India declared at 181 runs for the loss of 2 wickets, setting a target for West Indies. Despite Mohammed Siraj's impressive five-wicket haul, the match concluded in a draw as West Indies ended the final day at 76 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. Virat Kohli's 121 runs and Rohit Sharma's 80 runs bolstered India's batting in that fixture.
