The Ashes take a week off as South Africa conclude their tour of India with a five-match T20I series against the No. 1-ranked side in the world.

For South Africa, T20s have taken a back seat as Test cricket has become their priority. After a 2-0 Test series win over India to kick off the tour, they were beaten 2-1 in the ODI series and know an even tougher task awaits across these five games. They haven’t won any of their last five 20-over series and even conceded 304 to England back in September, so fireworks are likely when they bowl to India. Dewald Brevis is a name to watch, with the 22-year-old having smashed an astonishing century against Australia earlier this year.
