Watch: India gear up for Boxing Day Test against South Africa
India aim to make history by winning a Test series in South Africa, a nation where they have previously failed. South Africa have won seven out of eight visits from India since 1992, but most victories were narrow. The Indian team is confident as South Africa's top six players are considered fragile, lacking expertise. Key bowlers Rabada and Ngidi have fitness tests. Despite injuries to Shami and Gaikwad, India remains a strong team. South Africa has not drawn a Test at home since 2016 due to consistent weather and challenging pitches.
