Story highlights

As India vs South Africa Test series is approaching, let's have a look at all the important information required to know before the start of the series.

The current World Test Champions, South Africa, will play a two-match Test series against India on their home soil, starting from Friday (Nov 14). It will be a tough challenge for Temba Bavuma’s team, as India have a very strong record at their home in Test cricket. South Africa don't have a good record against India and have struggled on Indian pitches. They also lost both their recent tours to India in 2015 and 2019 both by same margin of 3-0.

However, this time Proteas might have a good opportunity to win, as Team India are already going through a transition phase after senior players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin retired from Test cricket.
