South Africa hope to unleash full pace attack on India in first Test

​South Africa's optimism revolves around the potential availability of both fast bowlers Kagiso Rabada and Lungi Ngidi for selection in the upcoming first Test against India, set to commence in Pretoria on Tuesday. Coach Shukri Conrad has confirmed their inclusion in the squad despite Rabada's ongoing heel injury and Ngidi's ankle concerns. Whether the duo play or not, it is likely Gerald Coetzee will get a run on what is likely to be a Centurion Park wicket with pace and bounce, regardless of his lack of Test experience.
