1st ODI: Weather update from Johannesburg ahead of India vs South Africa clash

Team India is all set to face South Africa for the first ODI game slated to take place on December 17. Notably, both sides last met in the 50th over of the game during the ODI World Cup 2023, where Team India had completely outclassed the Proteas at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

However, this time, the home team will be looking to dominate the runners-up of the ODI World Cup 2023 in the three matches of the series. Meanwhile, both sides last met in the T20I series, where the series was levelled up by 1-1 after the first game was washed out.

This time, the Men in Blue, who are currently sitting at the top spot in the ODI rankings, will be looking to win the series against South Africa. On the other hand, South Africa showed a magnificent performance in the ODI World Cup 2023, and they will be looking to beat India on home soil for the upcoming series.
