Aiden Markram will lead the home team, and Surykumar Yadav has been entrusted with the captaincy of India\u2019s T20 side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">Predictions for the South Africa vs India match<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>India, who are favourites to win the match, come into the series on the back of a 4 &#8211; 1 T20I series win over Australia. During that series, Surykumar Yadav and his team demonstrated their ability to either set a total or chase it down. India scored more than 200 runs twice, first to chase down a big total and then to register an unassailable score. Their bowlers were also outstanding, led by Ravi Bishnoi, who was named the Player of the Series for his nine wickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>South Africa, on the other hand, was soundly beaten by Australia in their most recent T20I assignment in August\/September 2023. The visiting Australian team outplayed their hosts in all three departments, bowling, fielding and batting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">\u26a1 Quick betting tips for South Africa vs India match<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>South Africa to be the team with the top batter &#8211; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/crickettimes.gigmedia.com\/goto\/rajabets\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow sponsored\">\u27a1\ufe0f 2.02 at Rajabets \u2b05\ufe0f<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>South Africa to hit the most sixes &#8211; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/crickettimes.gigmedia.com\/goto\/rajabets\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow sponsored\">\u27a1\ufe0f 2.04 at Rajabets \u2b05\ufe0f<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">\ud83d\udcdd South Africa vs India betting tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you feel that just betting on India to win, isn&#8217;t enough for you, here we&#8217;ll cover why we suggest some of the alternative bets that offer better value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">1. South Africa to be the team with the top batter at 2.02&nbsp;with Rajabets.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it is not gloom and doom for the home side. South Africa showed that they have players who can easily clear the ropes at the ODI World Cup. In the last 18 months, their batters, in particular Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, Reeza Hendricks and David Miller, have done well on the T20 circuit. All of them will be keen on transferring that form to this T20 international series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div   id="mz9k370o3o"    class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div   id="mz9k370o3o"    class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/crickettimes.gigmedia.com\/goto\/rajabets\/sports\" style=\"background-color:#22c55e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow sponsored\"><strong>Bet on South Africa to have the top batter at 2.02 with Rajabets<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">2. South Africa to hit the most sixes &#8211; 2.04 with Rajabets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing you know about South Africa is that their batters are massive. Big men, with big bats. Yet at the moment, the bookmakers have them as outsiders to hit the most sixes. The South African men could make that look very silly. Also worth a look at Gerald Coetzee who tripped over wickets in the World Cup. If he keeps up that form he might end up with another bag.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div   id="mz9k370o3o"    class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div   id="mz9k370o3o"    class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/crickettimes.gigmedia.com\/goto\/rajabets\/sports\" style=\"background-color:#22c55e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow sponsored\"><strong>Pick South Africa to score more sixes at 2.04 with Rajabets<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">South Africa vs India Match details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>\ud83c\udfcf <strong>Match<\/strong><\/td><td>SA vs Ind, KFC T20 International<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\ud83c\udfc6 <strong> Competition<\/strong><\/td><td>T20 Internationals<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\ud83c\udfdf\ufe0f <strong>Location<\/strong><\/td><td>Kingsmead Stadium, Durban, South Africa<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\ud83d\udcc5 <strong>Date and time<\/strong><\/td><td>Sunday, 10 December 2023, 19:30 IST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\ud83d\udcfa <strong>How to watch<\/strong><\/td><td>Star Sports, Disney+ Hotstar<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">Pitch Condition for South Africa vs India<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kingsmead pitch is known to offer assistance to pace bowlers, offering swing and seam movement when the ball is new. The surface generally aids spinners in the afternoon, and given the fact that the match will be played at night, spinners will find it difficult to bowl under lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The stadium has hosted 18 T20Is. In these matches, the average first-inning score is 143, with the side batting first having a slight advantage. Teams batting first have won nine matches, compared to eight won by chasing sides. The highest score at Kingsmead was 226 for six by Australia on 30 August 2023 and not much change is expected on the 10th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">South Africa starting XI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Reeza Hendricks, Matthew Breetzke, Aiden Markram (c), David Miller, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Tristan Stubbs, Marco Jansen, Andile Phehlukwayo, Gerald Coetzee, Keshav Maharaj, Lungi Ngidi.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">India starting XI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammad Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, Rinku Singh, Shreyas Iyer, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ravi Bishnoi, Jitesh Sharma, Shubman Gill, Mukesh Kumar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">Previous matches between South Africa and India<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>India and South Africa have met 24 times in T20 internationals.
