New Delhi: After an unforgettable time during the Test series against New Zealand, Team India’s T20I squad is in South Africa for the four-match series beginning November 8. Both India and South Africa will lock horns in the first game of the series on Friday, at Kingsmead, Durban. While a different Indian team has travelled to the nation for a different series, still pressure would be there especially after a poor show in the home Test series.
Team India would like to give their best shot when they face the Proteas at their home in the four T20I matches. On Tuesday, some pics were viral on social media which displayed Team India in a practice session in the stadium. The world champions are riding high on confidence when it comes to the shortest format as after clinching the T20 World Cup 2024, they thrashed Bangladesh in the T20I series at home.
Team India is a huddle
India team is being led by T20 specialist Suryakumar Yadav in South Africa while sees names like Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Rinku Singh, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya among others as participants. South Africa would be eager to avenge the loss suffered in the T20 World Cup final which India clinch while the Men in Blue would be keen on continuing their terrific run in the shortest format. In the total of 27 matches played between the two, India lead the stats table 15-11, with one match ending as no result.
