After getting thrashed by South Africa in three-match Test series by 2-1, Virat Kohli’s squad will aim to start the six-match One Day International series on a winning note.

The ODI series between India and South Africa will start from Thursday (1 February, 2018). Even though the visitors lost the Test series, they will be high on confidence with their win in last Test match. Not just that, the in-form of Indian pacers are a good news for Indian squad and skipper Virat Kohli.

Be it Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami or Jasprit Bumrah, all of them are in solid form. Inspite of losing the series, Indian bowlers took 60 wickets in three Test match and that is a thing to be celebrated.
