Team India will be visiting South Africa to participate in a series of 4 T20Is. These matches are set to span from 8th November 2024 to 15 November 2024. The two participating countries have faced each other 27 times in T20 Internationals. Of these 27 encounters, India has won 15 matches, whereas, South Africa has emerged victorious on 11 occasions. With the recent retirement of star Indian players, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma from T20I cricket, team India has been struggling to add more wins in this short game format. Will the young and talented Indian stars snatch victories off the equally skilled but more experienced Proteas team?? I guess we will have to wait to find out!
