South Africa are all set to host India for a highly anticipated four-match T20I series beginning on November 8. After enduring a heartbreaking loss to India in final of the T20 World Cup 2024 when the two sides last time met each other, South Africa will step onto their home turf with a clear intent to redeem themselves.

South Africa sets sights on India T20I series

South Africa recently played a hard-fought series against Ireland, ending in a 1-1 draw, and the upcoming fixtures will see them battle a formidable Indian side across various venues: Durban, Gqeberha, Centurion, and Johannesburg.  South Africa’s squad for the India T20I series strikes a balance between youth and experience, a lineup built on impactful performances and impressive displays in domestic and international cricket. Emerging talents have stepped up recently, proving their readiness with strong performances that make a compelling case for inclusion, and the South African selectors have crafted a roster that combines batting firepower, all-round utility, and bowling depth.
