India are set to play their New Year’s Test against South Africa at the Newlands in Cape Town
Trailing 0-1 after losing in Centurion, India are looking to stage a comeback at Centurion
However, India do not have fond memories of playing at the venue in Cape Town
Out of 6 Tests at the Newlands, India are to win a single match since first playing there in 1993
India lost four matches in 1997, 2007, 2018 and 2022
Hence, it goes without saying that the odds are not in India’s favour by any stretch of the imagination
India are already low in confidence after losing the first Test by an innings and 32 runs at the SuperSport Park
India are yet to win a bilateral Test series on South Africa, but this time they still have a chance to level the series
