SA vs IND Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Team Today’s, Playing XI, Head to Head Stats, and Injury Updates for India tour of South Africa 2023, 1st Test
After securing a significant ODI series victory in South Africa (SA), the Indian cricket team is set for a two-match Test series against the hosts. In an effort to break their winless streak in South Africa, India (IND) is gearing up for a two-match Test series against the hosts, commencing with a Boxing Day Test in Centurion. Despite numerous visits to the rainbow nation, India has never clinched a Test series victory there.
The 2021/22 tour saw India starting with a win but falling short in the last two Tests. In 2018, under the leadership of Virat Kohli, the Indian side managed to avoid a whitewash by winning the third Test match. Hence, this time around under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, team India would be looking to create history.
