India will look to cash in the winning momentum after the consolatory win in the final Test, as they take on South Africa in the first ODI of the six-match series on Thursday.
India will be aiming for their first bilateral ODI series triumph on the South African soil when they take on the Proteas in a six-match rubber. India will be looking to capitalise on the absence of AB de Villiers.
India will also look to kick off their preparations for the 2019 ODI World Cup during the series. India play six ODIs and three Twenty20 Internationals here, a T20I tri-series in Sri Lanka and then three ODIs and three T20Is in England and Ireland, with the 2018 IPL season thrown in, before the five-Test series in England later in August.
