India will play three Tests and three ODIs against South Africa with the tour beginning December 26. However, spectators will not be allowed at the venues, confirmed Cricket South Africa on Monday. The hosts trained at the SuperSport Park in Centurion ahead of the opening Test. They will be rueing the services of Anrich Nortje, who has been the Proteas’ pace bowling spearhead across formats of late and has stepped up to cover for an underperforming Kagiso Rabada.
