1st ODI SA vs IND Dream11 Prediction: These will be both teams’ first ODI since their World Cup exit in November. With both – India and South Africa still reeling from their loss in the final and semi-final of the World Cup respectively, a win in this series would be a fine start for the next four-year ODI cycle.
1st ODI SA vs IND Dream11 Prediction: Preview
The ODI series on this tour does not hold much weight. While the T20 series is a big step towards next year’s T20 World Cup, and the Test series is a part of the World Test Championship, the ODI series is played purely for bragging rights.
With that being said, winning a series in South Africa is a big honor for any visiting Asian team. On the other hand, defeating a dominant Indian side will be a big deal for South Africa as well.

SA vs IND 1st ODI Dream11: Who Will Win The Match
Both teams will be coming into this match with fire in their bellies after the World Cup loss. While India has boatloads of talent on their side, the team taken on the tour is missing several big names
In the present scenario, it is difficult to see South Africa being whitewashed in the series. And if they are to win a match, winning the first one has the highest odds just because several Indian players might struggle on South African pitches playing there after years (or the first time in some cases).
SA vs IND Dream11 Match Prediction: South Africa will defeat India in the 1st ODI of the three-match series.
