India vs South Africa 1st Test Live Telecast Channel: The SportsRush presents before you the timing and live streaming details of the 1st SA vs IND Test.

The first Test of India’s tour of South Africa 2021-22 will be played in Centurion from tomorrow. In what will be the second of the two Test matches beginning on Sunday (in addition to Australia vs England third Test), cricket fans across the world will have 16 hours of uninterrupted Test cricket for the next five days.

India, who had last played a Test match in South Africa in January 2018, will be playing one after almost four years. As far as playing a Test against each other is concerned, South Africa and India will be locking horns after just over three years.

Set to play a Test match after six months and a home Test match after almost a year, South Africa will continue their transition phase under Dean Elgar, who will lead a comparatively inexperienced squad.
