South Africa Tour of India 2019: Live streaming and telecast details, fixtures, and squads
The Men in Blue will host South Africa in a T20I and Test series between September 15 and October 23, 2019.
The Indians are coming into the series at the back of an extraordinary series victory against the Windies, and they will love to take that momentum into the home series against the Proteas. On the flipside, South Africa haven't played any bilateral series after their disastrous outing in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.
The Indian selectors have rested Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal for the T20I series. The South African selectors have made a major decision and have given Quinton de Kock the responsibility to lead the Proteas in the T20I series and Rassie van der Dussen has been appointed de Kock's deputy for the series.
