India yet to win Test series in SA
Team India are yet to win a Test series in South Africa. The visitors came close under MS Dhoni’s leadership in 2010-11, but could not cross the finishing line as the third and deciding Test ended in a draw. The world number 1 Test side will be looking to make amends this time around.
As stated above, the IND vs SA 1st Test match will be played at the SuperSport Park in Centurion from December 26 (Tuesday) onwards. Skipper Rohit Sharma will be looking to etch history after becoming the first ever Indian captain to win a Test series against the Proteas on their home turf.
