South Africa vs India T20I Series 2023: Full schedule, squads, match timings and live-streaming details

South Africa and India, two powerhouses in T20 cricket, are gearing up for a three-match T20I series that will kick off on Sunday, December 10, and wrap up on Thursday, December 14.

Both teams played their respective last T20Is against Australia. However, the results were contrasting as South Africa faced defeat, losing the series 3-0, whereas India emerged victorious with a 4-1 series win.

In the absence of regular captain Temba Bavuma and key player Kagiso Rabada, Aiden Markram will step into the leadership role for South Africa in the limited-over matches. The team has decided to rest some top players for both the T20Is and the subsequent ODIs.

Notably, Gerald Coetzee, the leading wicket-taker in the 2023 World Cup, is part of the squad. South African newcomers Nandre Burgera and Ottniel Baartman will make their T20I debut, while Matthew Breetzke, who debuted against Australia, is also included.

Similarly, India are opting for a strategic approach, giving a break to mainstays like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Hardik Pandya in white-ball cricket. Suryakumar Yadav will lead the team, featuring players such as Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammad Siraj, and Rinku Singh.

After the T20Is, a three-match ODI series and a two-match Test series are on the horizon. Now, let's delve into the head-to-head records between South Africa and India.
