On the Ball podcast | India vs South Africa T20Is: 'Pandya's role crucial; Dhoni's retirement just a social media storm'
Team India is gearing up to welcome South Africa on home turf. The two teams face-off in three-match T20I series which will be followed by a three-match Test series.

The Indian selectors have axed KL Rahul from the Test side and there are chances that Rohit Sharma could open the batting in longer format too.
South Africa bring in an inexperienced sides led by wicketkeeper batsman Quinton de Kock in T20s and Faf du Plessis in Tests.
