Last Bit Of India Tour Will Help Us In Preparing Well For T20 WC: Conrad

By IANS News December 20, 2025 • 16:28 PM View: 325

T20 World Cup: South Africa head coach Shukri Conrad said the concluding leg of their multi-format tour of India served as valuable preparation for them ahead of playing next year’s T20 World Cup.

South Africa suffered a 3-1 T20I series defeat to India but managed to play in conditions which will be similar to what they will find in the T20 World Cup, though fog and dew will be reduced in February-March.

South Africa will play three of their four group stage matches at the Narendra Modi Stadium. If they qualify, two of their three Super Eight fixtures will be at the same venue. Thus, ending their India tour in Ahmedabad made for a valuable preparation.
