Indian captain Virat Kohli’s record of winning on the home turf may have been good, but India have somewhat struggled in front of foreign hosts. After losing the recent series against New Zealand, questions have been raised on the Indian side.

After a 2–0 clean sweep at the hands of the hosts, captain Virat Kohli is on the target of critics.

From 2017 to 2020, let’s have a look at how many Test series defeats India had to face on a foreign tour:

India vs South Africa (2017/18)

India toured South Africa in the year 2017-18. In the three-match Test series played under Kohli’s captaincy, the hosts defeated the visitors 2–1.

The Proteas won the second Test at Centurion by 135 runs.

However, in the third Test played in Johannesburg, the sub-continent side saved their honour and won by 63 runs.

During the tour, African bowler Lungi Engidi displayed a great performance. He also took six wickets in the second Test.
