India had faced off against the Proteas in four T20Is in November last year.
India will play an eight-match limited-overs series against South Africa at the end of the year, according to a report.
The Proteas will tour India for three ODIs and five T20Is beginning in late November, similar to the four-match T20I bilateral series they played in November 2024.
The ODIs are likely to be played on November 30, December 3, and 6 in Ranchi, Raipur, and Visakhapatnam respectively. Last year, India played three ODIs during their tour of South Africa which they won by 2-1 with an inexperienced team under the captaincy of KL Rahul.
The T20Is have been scheduled for December 9, 11, 14, 17, and 19 to be played in Cuttack, Nagpur, Dharamsala, Lucknow, and Ahmedabad.

After the end of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 on May 25, India are set to tour England for five Tests from June 20 to August 4. The series will also mark the beginning of India’s campaign in the ICC World Test Championship cycle for 2025-27. After making it to the finals of the last two editions of the WTC, India lost to New Zealand at home, followed by the 1-3 humiliation in Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy which put a question mark on Rohit Sharma continuing as the Test captain.
The Asia Cup 2025 will follow the England Test series in September. The BCCI, which holds the hosting rights, has yet to confirm the schedule. Reports suggest that the Board will choose neutral venues since arch-rivals Pakistan are also participating.
India had refused to travel to the neighbouring country for the Asia Cup 2023 and the recent Champions Trophy 2025. They picked Sri Lanka and Dubai as the neutral venues to play their matches.
If things stay the same by November, Suryakumar Yadav will be leading the T20I side against South Africa. Rohit will continue as the ODI captain having retired from T20Is after the 2024 T20 World Cup final against South Africa.
