The four-match T20I series will be the first encounter between South Africa and India since the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup final, setting the stage for a potential revenge match for the Proteas.
Suryakumar Yadav will lead India’s star-studded lineup, aiming to keep up their momentum and swiftly adapt to South African conditions. After dominant 3-0 series wins over Sri Lanka in July and Bangladesh in October, India are keen to extend their streak.
South Africa, however, with the advantage of home conditions, will look to challenge the visitors, coming into this series after a recent 1-1 draw with Ireland in September.
India will be missing key players due to injuries, including pacer Mayank Yadav, who made his debut in the last series against Bangladesh, and all-rounder Riyan Parag. Additionally, Shivam Dube, who was out of the Bangladesh series with an injury, is still unavailable.
On the other hand, Aiden Markram will continue to captain a strong South Africa squad, with David Miller and Heinrich Klaasen making their return. However, the Proteas will be without Kagiso Rabada, who has been rested for the series to manage his workload.
