In the wake of a thrilling T20I series that ended in a 1-1 draw, cricket fans are gearing up for the upcoming 3-match ODI series between India and South Africa. Although the World T20 is just six months away, this ODI series holds significance as it marks the beginning of the journey toward the next World Cup for both teams.

For the Proteas, the void of Quinton de Kock and Temba Bavuma opens doors for new talents like Reeza Hendricks and Tony de Zorzi, who look to establish themselves as key players in the batting lineup. The middle order boasts the likes of Rassie Van Der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, and David Miller, forming a formidable core.

In the bowling department, the rest period for Marco Jansen and Gerald Coetzee paves the way for Andile Phelukwayo and Wiaan Mulder, bringing a fresh perspective to the team's strategy. Tabraiz Shamsi and the fast bowling options complete the lineup, ready to face the Indian challenge.

Team India, on the other hand, enters the ODI series with a rejuvenated squad, featuring a mix of experienced and promising youngsters. With the senior players getting a breather, names like Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rajat Patidar, and Sai Sudharsan look to make a mark in the middle order. Sanju Samson and Yuzvendra Chahal return to the squad, adding depth and experience.

Wanderers, Johannesburg Pitch Report:

The Wanderers' pitch offers quick pace and bounce, favoring aggressive stroke play. Historically, the Wanderers has been a venue where chasing teams have found success. Notably, the famous 434-run game showcased the venue's propensity for high-scoring encounters. Therefore, winning the toss and opting to chase has been a successful strategy in the past. Bowlers can exploit pace and bounce initially and for that reason, batters will have to spend some time on the crease before playing aggressive shots.

Weather Conditions

The weather forecast includes a 25% chance of a thunderstorm in the afternoon, adding an element of unpredictability. Overall, an exciting contest between bat and ball awaits in the first ODI of the series between India and South Africa.
