Yea definitely! Don't know why people here are not able to understand :facepalm: Guys' date=' it is to honour the legendary Jacques Kallis.. And just 1 T20, are they asking too much from our too busy Indian players :headshake:[/quote'] Agree , don't really mind if it's for Kallis. hamare seniors ki bhi vidayi kar do waha pe. :--D

[phaedrus]

Apparently it is to commemorate the 150 years of settlement of Indians in that country. or something like that

[gaurav92]

Great scheduling BCCI

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

What a joke travelling for the whole day to play 3-5 hours of cricket!, just before the Asia cup as well! Fair enough if it was a friendly and we were sending some kids, but bcci confirmed it will be the first team.

Sahi baat hai. Main to kab se keh raha hu, koi maanta hi nahi :((

[Spiderguy252]

Just for the heck of it, we should send Srikkanth as opening batsman, captain and slip fielder for the game. Our best XI, like it says.

[Old guy]

[SLICKR392]

Honor Kallis ? For what ?

[Stuge]

This match is the result of good friendship between India and South Africa .

India are set to take on South Africa in a one-off Twenty20 International on March 30 in Johannesburg to commemorate the 150 years of settlement of Indians in that country, it has been learnt. "The same squad (Asia Cup squad), with a few changes, will leave for South Africa on the 28th of March to play a one-off T20 International on March 30 to celebrate 150 years of Indian settlement. The invitation from the SA board has been accepted by BCCI," sources said in Mumbai on Monday. Senior batsman Sachin Tendulkar, who does not play T20 Internationals, is unlikely to be part of the squad and in his place Karnataka's Robin Uthappa is expected to get the nod.
