SA vs IND Match Preview

The first One-Day International (ODI) between South Africa (SA) and India (IND) is expected to take place in Boland. South Africa, fresh off a morale-boosting Test series victory, looks primed to replicate that success in the 50-over format when they face India in a three-match ODI series. The Proteas, led by Temba Bavuma, have a strong mix of youth and experience, with Quinton de Kock and David Miller poised to flourish for the hosts.

However, considering the resources at their disposal in this format, India will enter the series as clear favourites. A thrilling encounter awaits at Boland Park, with the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and interim skipper KL Rahul eager to revenge India’s Test series setback.

Pitch Report

It’s a decent batting wicket, but having said that, there will be more support for the spinners as well. The wicket tends to slow as the game marches and anything over 250 is a good competitive score here.

SA vs IND Player Stats & Must Picks

Quinton de Kock: Quinton de Kock is one of the best ODI openers, and his statistics speak for themselves. The southpaw has an unblemished record against India, averaging 60.3 runs per innings in 13 innings. With a point to prove in ODIs, de Kock is a must-have in your SA versus IND Dream11 fantasy team.

Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli showed indications of form in the third Test, but he was unable to get the elusive century. The former Indian skipper will be looking to get some runs in the top order. Given his form in his previous ODI series in South Africa in 2018 (558 runs in six matches), Kohli is one to watch in this game.

Andile Phehlukwayo: Over the last year or so, Andile Phehlukwayo has been a significant component of South Africa’s ODI preparations, coming up trumps with both the bat and the ball. Phehlukwayo’s ball-handling skills should serve him well on what is expected to be a sluggish track, making him a valuable addition to your SA versus IND Dream11 fantasy team.

Yuzvendra Chahal: Yuzvendra Chahal is the Indians’ top spinner in this ODI series due to his ability to take wickets in the middle overs. Furthermore, Chahal has some excellent memories from his time in South Africa, which should make him a strong addition to your fantasy squad for this game.
