As per the schedule of Indian tour of South Africa 3 T20 series between both teams is still to be played after the completion of 6 match ODI series starting from 1st February and ended on 16th February 2018. As far as the previous performance of Indian cricket team in South Africa is concerned, India had just won 2 test matches in South Africa out of 17 they had played in recent years. India although performed really outstandingly in test series as they won 9 test series in a row against different teams but they lost their 10th test series against South Africa by 2-1.
No doubt Indian cricket team is well aware of limited over format especially in matches they played outside their country but current Virat Kohli is aiming his all concentration of ODI series and his game strategy is to won maximum matches out of 6 ODI match and get their revenge of defeat in test series by host side.
