Preview

The highly anticipated T20I series between South Africa (SA) and Team India (IND) is set to take place on November 8, with the first match of the four-game T20I series in Kingsmead, Durban. Notably, this marks the very first time since the final showdown of the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup that both sides will be taking on each other. Rohit Sharma and his men became the world champions after thwarting Aiden Markram and Co. by seven runs in the summit clash.

However, the Men in Blue are set to have a largely different team from the one that won the ICC tournament, while the Proteas are setting the field with a strong unit in the forthcoming series. Aiden Markram and his men will be eager to take revenge for the T20 World Cup 2024 final loss and thump the Men in Blue.

The two finalists and deserving T20 World Cup 2024 teams are all set to produce a thrilling match in the series opener to take a 1-0 lead. Suryakumar Yadav will be leading the T20 World Champions, which has some exciting faces. The visitors are set to continue with a second string filled with young players and fringe players looking to cement their place in the T20I squad. On the flip side, the Proteas have welcomed back their players from the 2024 T20 World Cup squad, who were given the rest during the recent white-ball matches in the UAE.

Pitch Report

The surface in Durban is an excellent track for the pacers. It has pace and bounce, which the seamers will enjoy. Fast bowlers will have some help early on, but the batting conditions may improve slightly as the game moves on. The forecast predicts overcast conditions on Friday in Durban, with the prediction of passing showers in some areas of the city.
