IND vs SA Dream11 Match Prediction

IND vs SA Dream11: India are all set to begin their next ODI assignment against South Africa with 3-match ODI series starting from Thursday. India are coming to this series after losing the last ODI series 3-0 against New Zealand. South Africa, on the other hand, whitewashed Australia 3-0 at home. A host of superstars have made their comebacks to the respective squads for this series. For India, Shikhar Dhawan, Hardik Pandya, and Bhubneshwar Kumar have returned to the squad from their respective injury layoffs. However, Rohit Sharma is still unfit and could not make the cut. For South Africa, Faf du Plessis has returned to the side and he would certainly add the stell to the Proteas batting line-up. Both sides would like to start the series with a win to gain an early advantage in the series.
