IND vs SA: Indian Captains who Lose the Most Tests in South Africa (India vs South Africa 2022)

IND vs SA: India’s aim of winning a Test series in South Africa is still unfulfilled. India lost the 3 Test series 2-1 after losing the third Test match in Cape Town. India lost the series after a great win in Centurion. They lost back-to-back Test matches in Johannesburg & Cape Town. Between January 19 and 23, both teams will play a three-match One-Day International series.

The game had a few contentious moments, making it one of the most exciting white-ball matches in recent memory. One of the major talking points from the Test match and the series as a whole was Dean Elgar’s controversial DRS call.

Meanwhile, we’ll look at the Indian captains who have lost the most Tests in South Africa in this article. There are a few notable names on the list.

The Indian captains who have lost the most tests in South Africa

Virat Kohli – 3

With three losses, the current Indian captain leads the list. In this series, there were two of them. Despite finding some form with the bat, he was unable to win Test matches in South Africa. The victory in the first Test came at his expense. The team’s loss in Cape Town, on the other hand, was a major setback. This Virat Kohli-led team was predicted to win the series against the hosts, who had a fairly inexperienced batting lineup.

Their bowlers, on the other hand, compensated for the batting order’s lack of experience. Dean Elgar, the skipper, confirmed the same in his post-match press conference.

MS Dhoni- 2

India lost two Test matches in South Africa under MS Dhoni’s captaincy. The first loss occurred in Centurion in 2010, while the second occurred in Durban in 2013. In these two encounters, Dhoni’s contribution to the bat was likewise negligible. After playing 90 Test matches and guiding the team in 60 of them, Dhoni decided to step down as India’s Test captain.

Rahul Dravid-2

In 2006-07, the current Indian head coach also served as captain of India in South Africa. India won the first Test in Johannesburg, giving them a perfect start to the three-match series. S Sreesanth bowled out the Protean batting line-up twice and finished the game with 8 wickets.

India, on the other hand, squandered the lead coming into the next two Test matches, losing both by large margins. They were defeated by South Africa by five wickets in the third Test after losing the second match by 174 runs.

Sachin Tendulkar-2

Tendulkar’s time as India captain was not particularly successful, but he did have a few memorable innings at that time. He scored 169 and had a 222-run partnership with Mohammed Azharuddin in the Cape Town Test in 1996. They combined for a batting masterclass, scoring 58/5 as a team. India lost the first two Tests of the series before drawing the third in Johannesburg.
