Suryakumar and his team will take a flight to South Africa to play four crucial T20I games. This will be both teams’ first encounter after the thrilling T20 World Cup 2024, where India came out on top against the Proteas, clinching the ICC trophy after waiting for more than a decade.
Currently, the Indian Test team is experiencing a low point, as they were totally written off by the New Zealand. India suffered their first series defeat on home soil in Test cricket since 2012, the last came against Alastair Cook’s England.
Speaking more about the T20I series, the KFC T20I series will feature four matches starting on November 8 at Kingsmead, Durban. The caravan will then move to Dafabet St George’s Park, followed by the third match at SuperSport Park, and the final T20I will take place at Wanderers Stadium.
Not to forget, this will be India’s last T20I assignment of the year, as immediately after that, the Indian Test team will move on to play the ultimate Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which is expected to be big. See the full schedule of India’s tour of South Africa along with other crucial details.
India squad for South Africa T20 2024

If we look at the squad, Mayank Yadav, who made his debut against Bangladesh, is not in the mix this time due to injury. Riyan Parag will also miss the series because of his chronic right shoulder injury.
There are a few surprise selections that are currently the talk of the town. Batter Raman Deep Singh, who performed exceptionally well for KKR in IPL 2024 also made a name for himself in the Emerging Team Asia Cup, has received his maiden call-up. Also, RCB emerging pacers Vijaykumar Vyshak and Yash Dayal will look to prove their selection right.
