During this, the Indian team players received a great welcome.
The Indian team has never been able to beat South Africa in their home series.
The South African team also visited India in June this year. A series of five T20 matches was then played between India and South Africa. KL Rahul was named captain of the Indian team for that series but before this series could start he got injured before that. After this, Rishabh Pant was made captain. The Indian team lost the first two games of the series. However, after this, the Indian team made a tremendous comeback and won two matches.

This series will not be easy for Rohit Sharma as the South African team have not won a single T20 series in India so far.
