Chance For India To Set The Record Straight

In home conditions, Indian cricket wears a different look. There is almost a touch of invincibility to it. The growth in confidence has also reflected in the improved results overseas, particularly in the shorter format.

But India’s home record in T20s against South Africa surely needs improvement. India lost both decisive matches in the lone threematch series in 2015. In fact, India did avenge the loss in South Africa in February last year.

For skipper Virat Kohli, who never stops saying, “We want to win every match in every format, no matter where we play,” it is an opportunity to set the record straight in the T20 series commencing here on Sunday.

Easier to handle

The members of this South African team, under wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock, appear easier to deal with, than their predecessors. But Kohli needs no reminding that shorter the format, brighter the chances of an upset.
