The India squads for an all-format tour of South Africa, set to begin on December 10 in Durban, have been announced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have requested a break from the white-ball series, with Sharma leading the Indian team in the Test series, while KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav have been named the captains for the ODI and T20I series, respectively.
