T20-deprived fans are bracing themselves for the return of the format to Bengaluru after almost 33 months with India set to host Africa in the fifth and last T20I of the ongoing series.
Interestingly, the last T20 to be played at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium was also an India vs South Africa encounter in September 2019. It is due to this dearth in short-format cricket in the city that online tickets for Sunday’s match got sold out within no time after being put on sale for general public.
The same happening even when Bengaluru hosted an India-Sri Lanka Test match only three months ago speaks highly about the enthusiasm among fans for this match.
Set to be the eighth T20I in Bengaluru, it will be India’s sixth one here. Readers must note that the home team has won three and lost two out of its five T20Is at this venue. South Africa, on the other hand, have won their only Chinnaswamy Stadium T20I.

As mentioned above, Bengaluru hasn’t hosted a T20 since 2019. While multiple venues of the city have hosted other domestic tournaments in the recent years including the ongoing Ranji Trophy 2021-22 knockout stage, Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy has been awarded to other cities of late.
