Team India managed to clinch the three-match ODI and five-match T20I series against South Africa. Under the captaincy of KL Rahul, the "Men in Blue" sealed the ODI series by 2-1, whereas the side sealed the shortest format series by 3-1 under the leadership of Suryakumar Yadav.

Despite winning the two formats' series, former Team India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar said that the results in Test cricket define the true health of the country's cricket.
