CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - India batsman Cheteshwar Pujara says they are confident of claiming a historic first test series win in South Africa, led by their potent fast bowling attack on the lively Highveld wickets where the first two of three tests will be played.

India are fresh from home success against New Zealand, while South Africa have not played red ball cricket since June ahead of the first test that starts in Pretoria on Dec. 26.
