The tour will start with three ODIs in Bengaluru before the visitors to move to Chennai for one-off Test and T20Is, for which the squad will be announced later.
South Africa will be without the services of experienced Lara Goodall (hamstring injury), Chloe Tryon (back) and Ayanda Hlubi (groin), as they are currently under recuperation.
However, they might be included in the T20I side later.
Interim coach Dillon du Preez said negating Indian spinners has been an important part of their preparation for the tour.
바카라We had big focus on options against spin and it was good to see the buy-in from the team. We also have new management involved.
바카라So, this would be a great opportunity for them to find their feet before we come back and start our preparation for the (women바카라s T20) World Cup (in September in Bangladesh,바카라 said Du Preez in a release.
The former South African all-rounder urged the team to remain calm under pressure.
바카라The key for us would be to assess the conditions as soon as possible, be calm under pressure and try and play key moments in the game better than the opposition.
바카라We all know a series against India in India will always be tough,바카라 he added.
