Watch: Team India Leave For South Africa Tour
India’s mr 360 batter Suryakumar Yadav will lead the team in the shortest format of the game while KL Rahul will do the captaincy duty in the one-day matches.
The Men in Blue on Wednesday left for South Africa where they will be playing games in all three formats. The Indian team will lock horns with the Proteas in three T20Is and three ODIs before featuring in two Tests. During India’s last tour of South Africa in 2021-22, the Men in Blue ended up losing the red ball series 2-1 and were blanked 3-0 in the ODI series. This time they will be looking to put up a much better show against the South African team.
PTI on Wednesday posted a video on its social media handle where the members of the Indian team were spotted leaving for South Africa from Bengaluru.
