India will host South Africa for three-match ODI series that starts in Dharmsala on 12 March.
India is coming off with a poor tour of New Zealand as they got whitewashed in the ODI and Test series after whitewashing the hosts in the T20I series. After such a bad performance team will look to bounce back in this home ODI series.
On the other hand, South Africa was also going through a rough phase but the ODI series win over Australia last week have given them much needed confidence and momentum and this young South African team will look to upset India in their own backyard. And here is a statistical look at India versus South Africa's ODI history.
