India will take on South Africa in the first of the 3-match T20 series in HPCA Cricket Ground at Dharamsala (Himachal Pradesh). The weather forecast for Sunday's series opener is not too bright as there are some chances of scattered rains during the day. The rain forecast during late afternoon could cause a delay in the start of the match, scheduled to commence at 7 pm (IST).  However, the good news for the players and the fans is that the chances of showers during the evening are minimal and hence interruption of play during match hours seems quite unlikely. The playing conditions at the venue dint seem conducive  for holding a cricket match as the ground-staff was seen covering parts of playing area a day before the match. The training sessions for both the teams India skipper Virat Kohli also walked out under a umbrella after addressing the press conference. Indian players had to practice indoors due to poor weather conditions on Saturday in the city. In terms of preparing for the long season on home soil, India captain Virat Kohli stressed on the fact that their training and hard work remains the same whether they are playing in the country or when touring overseas. The main goal of the team is always to go out there and win every game. "For us as a home team we need to be absolutely sure of our game plan. The way we prepare for overseas series where we have to be very very focussed, it's the same (for home series). International cricket is about your mindset nowadays. "Every condition can be home condition if you feel comfortable. I think it's getting into that frame of mind for us which is very important. That's why we have been one of the most consistent teams in the last 2-3 years. "And that's been the reason because we want to win every game wherever we play whether it's home, away, any format... we just want to go out there, play our best cricket and win," Kohli said at the pre-match press conference in Dharamsala on Saturday.
