Veteran South African pacer Dale Steyn is on the verge to make his Test comeback against India when both teams will lock horn in three-match series. He has been out from the action since last 13 months with being the second highest wicket-taker for his nation in the longest format.

Shaun Pollack holds the pride of being the most successful countryman with the red cherry in hand, but Steyn’s 417 scalps are just four short of leapfrogging him.

Steyn was the best fast bowler in the world but a string of injuries has forced him to miss the game. A serious shoulder injury during Perth Test against Australia put a question mark over his career but he has overcome from that fall and is ready to arrive at international arena once again.

However, he has played few games in Ram Slam T20s, but he was put under cotton very soon to be fit for an upcoming big series against India.

India and South Africa will commence their battle for Gandhi-Mandela trophy from January 5 in Cape Town before turning to Centurion and Johannesburg respectively.
