India vs South Africa series 2019: Full schedule, squads, when and where to watch, telecast and streaming details

The South African cricket team is scheduled to travel to the Indian subcontinent to lock horns with the Men in Blue in three Twenty20 Internationals and three Tests in the prestigious Gandhi-Mandela series. The tour is set to commence on the 15th of September, 2019.

India are riding high on momentum after clean sweeping the West Indies across all formats. However, the Indian T20I squad still looks a work in progress. Skipper Virat Kohli would be hoping to find the appropriate team balance as the side focusses on competently preparing itself for the upcoming T20 World Cup in Australia.

On the other hand, the Proteas would be yearning to get back to winning ways, following a horrible World Cup campaign. Surprisingly, the captaincy reins in the shortest version of the game have been snatched from Francois du Plessis and have been handed over to wicket-keeper batsman Quinton de Kock.

In fact, the experienced campaigner has not even found a place in the T20I squad, which is quite shocking considering his remarkable credentials.

Apart from the above, several consistent performers from the domestic circuit have been rewarded with berths in the national squads for the tour. The likes of Bjorn Fortuin, Beuran Hendricks and Anrich Nortje could be seen making their debut for the Proteas.

As for the longest format, the three Tests would mark the beginning of South Africa's campaign in the newly-formed ICC World Test Championship.
