India vs South Africa T20I series: Complete schedule, venues, and match timings for IND vs SA 3-match T20I series

Suryakumar Yadav will lead India in a four-match T20I series against South Africa starting Friday, November 8. Despite the absence of players from the team that recently lost a home Test series to New Zealand, a strong showing against the Proteas could boost morale for fans before the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy five-Test series in Australia.

The last time India toured South Africa for a T20I series was almost exactly a year ago. SKY was the captain then as well but he was only filling in for the injured Hardik Pandya. The first match in Durban was washed out after which South Africa won the second by five wickets. India then won the third by a whopping 106 runs with Suryakumar smashing 100 in 56 balls. This was followed by a pulsating two-match Test series that ended in a 1-1 draw.

In the period between the two tours, India and South Africa faced off in a gripping T20 World Cup final in Barbados. It was South Africa's first-ever World Cup final, ODI or T20I, and it looked like they were primed for victory when they needed just 30 runs to win off the last five overs. However, then employed a dramatic chokehold and ended up winning the match by seven runs, thus securing their first T20 World Cup title since 2007 and their first ICC title since 2013. That is the main source of spice for this series with South Africa standing a chance to avenge the bruising defeat in Barbados.
