When it comes to winning a Test Series in South Africa, there are just a handful number of teams that have achieved the feat; England, Australia, and Sri Lanka. India have played eight test series in South Africa and have lost 7 of them with one ending in a draw. Of the 23 Tests India have played in South Africa they’ve won a paltry four.
The Men in Blue haven’t played a single match in the format since their 1-0 victory over the West Indies back in July this year. They are also at the top of ICC WTC Points Table 2023-25 with 66.67 PCT points. While South Africa haven’t played any test match in the new cycle of the World Test Championship, this series will serve as their first in the cycle.
South Africans will experience the weight of their past. They are not as good as they have been in previous home series versus India, especially with Dean Elgar’s 37.28 average being one of only three players averaging above thirty.
Temba Bavuma and Rohit Sharma will play their first match since their national teams were eliminated from the World Cup in India last month. For these proud leaders, winning this series won’t make their disappointment go away, but losing would be equally heartbreaking.
