Match Preview

The dust of the ODI World Cup 2023 defeat has finally settled now and the Men in Blue, along with the fans have already started looking forward. Just after the completion of the World Cup, India registered a 4-1 series win against Australia. 

Now, the Men in Blue have shifted their entire focus on the forthcoming T20 World Cup 2024 and the kind of game they have displayed against the Aussies is a solid testament to it.

In their next assignment, Suryakumar Yadav and Co. will travel to South Africa for a multi-format series starting on December 10 with a T20I match.  

Toss Prediction

sa vs ind 1st t20i toss India and South Africa locked horns in a three-match series last year when the Proteas toured the Indian subcontinent. The Men in Blue got a home advantage and came on top in two out of three toss wars. For the upcoming clash, we think Aiden Markram will have an advantage, and he will win the toss over the Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav. 

Win Possibility

sa vs ind 1st t20i win possibility India and South Africa are considered two of the most powerful teams in the cricketing world. They share a T20I rivalry of 24 matches, where the Proteas won 10 matches while the 2007 World Cup winners won 13 matches and one resulted in abandonment. 

Suryakumar Yadav and Co. are coming off a brilliant 4-1 win over Australia in the recently concluded series. The Indian squad consists of several in-form players, who did well in their previous assignments.  The records and data suggest that the Indians are clear favourites to win the upcoming game.
