India battled with Australia in the record of winning the most Twenty20 series before returning to the series with a draw against South Africa at home. Australia, however, set the record at the very beginning. Australia won eight consecutive T20 series at home from 2006 to 2010.
From the year 2019, India has won all the T20 series and written their names next to the Aussies. India set a world record by drawing 2-2 against the Proteas. However, Rishabh Pant did not start this series very well. After losing the first two matches, India, who has won 12 consecutive matches, failed to set a record for the most consecutive T20 wins.
Just like India, Afghanistan has won 12 consecutive Twenty20 matches. Meanwhile, India, fearing a series loss against South Africa, turned around in the third match. Then they won the fourth match and returned the parity. After the series-winning match was canceled due to rain, both the team shared the series. At the same time, India set a world record of remaining unbeaten in 9 consecutive series.
The journey to set this world record also started in South Africa. The 3-match series against them in 2019 was a 1-1 draw. India won two series each against West Indies and Sri Lanka. Besides, they have won the series against Bangladesh, New Zealand, and England.
After India and Australia, South Africa was unbeaten in six consecutive home series between 2007 and 2010. From 2016 to 2018, India went close to the record once again. They remained unbeaten in 6 consecutive home series. India tasted the highest T20 series loss in 2019, against Australia.
