One thought on “India’s Test Squad named for South Africa 2018 Tour

  1. India is a good alround side at home but away from home the results are not good as the wickets r not home made for them. the money will all be on SA. at the most India can hope for a 2_1 defeat.

    Best of luck India.The series is worth watching with our fingers crossed
