Only three Indian players who made it to all format squads for South Africa series

On November 30, India announced their all-format squads for the tour of South Africa. The series will start with a three-match T20I series on December 10. After this, both teams will play as many ODI games, followed by two Tests at the end of the year. Meanwhile, talking about the teams, most of the players are either playing in the one or two formats but only three have made it to all format teams.

Those players are Ruturaj Gaikwad, Mukesh Kumar, and Shreyas Iyer. The right-hander, Gaikwad recently scored his maiden T20I hundred against Australia. On the other hand, Kumar played two games of the ongoing Australia series and took a leave for his marriage before the third T20I. Apart from them, Iyer has returned to the team as vice-captain ahead of the fourth match on December 10.
