Rishabh Pant has captained many matches for his team Delhi Capitals in IPL and now his captaincy is to be against South Africa in the first T20 International match against Test South Africa in Delhi. Rishabh Pant is going to captain Team India for the first time in T20 International cricket. It will be the Pant's effort to make the Indian team win in front of the home fans on his home ground and if he manages to do so as a captain, then a big world record will be recorded in the name of Team India.
Great chance for India to break the record of Afghanistan and Romania

India will overtake these two countries as soon as they win the first T20 match against South Africa and become the first country in the world to win the most consecutive T20 matches (13 matches). Under the captaincy of Rishabh Pant, India has an unmatched chance to make this splendid record its name.

12- India
12- Afghanistan
12- Romania
