IND vs SA, 1st ODI: When and where to watch, predicted playing XIs

India's One Day Internationals (ODIs) series against South Africa will feature promising new-generation stars, despite skepticism about its relevance with the T20 World Cup on the horizon. The series serves as a platform for the emergence of a fresh cricketing line, setting the stage for the ICC Champions Trophy in 2025. KL Rahul, who will captain India in the three-match series, could potentially secure the ODI captaincy for an extended period. The focus shifts to the younger generation to carry forward their legacy.
