It is that time of the year when India will be the host for back-to-back four countries, starting with South African tour. The players of South Africa have come to India to play against India in their three T20Is and three Test matches. The first T20I has just started from September 15 with the last Test match ending on October 23. As the matches are occurring on the home ground, the Indian team will definitely try to win all the matches against South Africa, after their last big win in their West Indian tour. But the visitors will try to put their best foot forward; they have added fresh faces in their South African team.

Though the first T20I was washed out due to rain in Dharamshala on September 15, viewers and fans are hoping that other locations won’t be hit by rain and matches will go off well. It would be Virat Kohli’s Indian team giving a tough fight against Quinton de Kock’s South African team.
