IND vs SA 1st T20 Live: Hello and welcome to ABP Live’s coverage of India vs South Africa 1st T20I being played at Greenfield International Cricket Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram. After a terrific series win against Australia, the Rohit Sharma-led team India are set to face South Africa in the three-match T20 Series. 

The Indian team will also be facing the Proteas in the three-match ODI series that will take place from October 6. There are chances that Shikhar Dhawan will be leading the side since the team led by Rohit Sharma will be travelling to Australia to take part in the ICC T20 World Cup.

For South Africa, Captain Temba Bavuma is taking charge of the Proteas.  Last month, South Africa played Ireland in the two-match T20I series where they won the 1st T20I by 21 runs, followed by the 2nd T20I by 44 runs, and ended up winning the series 2-0.
