Desk: The three-match ODI series between India and South Africa has reached a very exciting turn. This series, which was tied at 1-1, has now become a decider and this last match will be played at Dr. Y.S. of Visakhapatnam. Will be played at Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Stadium. Team India will be eyeing to win this match and continue its dominance in ODIs against South Africa. At the same time, South Africa will go to win the ODI series in India after a long wait of 10 years.

This ground of Visakhapatnam has always been full of happiness for the Indian team. Of the total 10 ODI matches played here, India has won 7, lost only 2 and one match has been tied. That means the winning percentage is above 70%. However, Team India’s last ODI win on this ground came in 2019, whereas after that in 2023, Australia definitely raised some concerns by defeating India here. Now after 6 years, the Indian team would like to win once again on this ground and the fans hope that the old magic will work again.

On the other hand, this ground is completely unknown for South Africa. The Proteas team has not played a single ODI here till now. Although he played one Test here in 2019 and one T-20 match in 2022, he had to face defeat in both. That means South Africa’s record in the soil of Visakhapatnam is still zero. In such a situation, to win this series, South Africa will have to change the history of Visakhapatnam and open the account of victory on this ground.
