Virat Kohli and Co. will play three-match series against South Africa starting with a Boxing Day Test in Centurion. It will be a crucial series for India as they will eye to strengthen their position at the top of ICC rankings and will also look to make their case strong in World Test Championship. The first Test gets underway at 1:30 pm IST on Sunday, at SuperSport Park, Centurion.
South Africa are going through a rejuvenation period after the retirement of their several legends. It will be Dean Elgar’s first big challenge as captain. The hosts have a balanced bowling attack but the absence of Anrich Nortje is going to hurt them. Kagiso Rabada and Duanne Olivier are going to play a crucial role for the Proteas if they want to upset India and continue their domination in home conditions.
On the other hand, India are going to miss the services of Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja in the series. In Rohit’s absence, Mayank Agarwal is expected to open the innings for India alongside KL Rahul. Mayank was in terrific form in the Test series against New Zealand at home and he will continue it in South Africa. Meanwhile, veterans Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane are also under pressure to score big runs for India.
