Commentary

  • 45.3

    FOUR! Kagiso Rabada to MS Dhoni. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed past deep square leg for 4 runs. MS Dhoni finishes the game in style. Latches onto the short delivery, and pummels it through backward square for four.

    When India are chasing, they are more than likely going to be the winning team. That is because they have Virat Kohli in their team. A 33rd ODI century for him today, and alongside Ajinkya Rahane, made the chase of 270 look remarkably simple.

    The hosts were clearly 50 runs short of a good total in the end, and they had no big contributors apart from their captain, who struck his 9th ODI ton to keep the Proteas in the hunt at the halfway point. India cruised to victory though, and go 1-0 up in the six match series. Find out if South Africa can fight back to level things up, or if India can extend their lead in the second ODI on Sunday.

  • 44.6

    APPEAL! Andile Phehlukwayo to MS Dhoni. Half volley, middle stump on the front foot flick, hit pad to silly point for no runs, fielded by Phehlukwayo, appeal made for L.B.W. Big shout first up to Dhoni. Very full, but yet again sliding down the legside. Good call from the umpire.

    Virat Kohli c Kagiso Rabada b Andile Phehlukwayo 112 (119)

    OUT! Caught. Andile Phehlukwayo to Virat Kohli. Slower ball short, outside off stump on the back foot hooking, top edge in the air uncontrolled to fine leg, by Rabada. Kohli perishes to the the slower ball bouncer now. Was dropped in Phehlukwayo's last over, but Rabada hangs onto the catch this time. Cannot get on top of the bounce, and the top edge carries down to fine leg for the grab. End of a magificent innings.

  • 44.2

    APPEAL! Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Andile Phehlukwayo to Hardik Pandya. Full toss, to leg on the front foot flick, hit pad to short fine leg for 1 run, fielded by de Kock, appeal made for L.B.W. Pointless review really, just wasting everyone's time. Phehlukwayo the only man to appeal, as it way going a long way down the legside. HawkEye confirms that.

  • 42.6

    Andile Phehlukwayo to Virat Kohli. Slower ball short, outside off stump on the back foot hooking, top edge in the air uncontrolled to deep backward square leg for 1 run. It won't make a difference to the result, but it would've been nice for South Africa to dismiss Kohli. A slower ball bouncer, it comes high off the bat, and the sub fielder at deep square leg cannot hold on. Simple chance put down.

  • 42.5

    Andile Phehlukwayo to Virat Kohli. Slower ball short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, bottom edge to gully for no runs, fielded by Markram.

  • 42.4
    Ajinkya Rahane c Imran Tahir b Andile Phehlukwayo 79 (86)

    OUT! Caught. Andile Phehlukwayo to Ajinkya Rahane. Length ball, off stump backing away driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on, by Tahir. Rahane was wanting to go over mid off, but Phehlukwayo follows him down the legside and cramps him for room. Rahane ends up dragging it round to Tahir at long on, who makes no mistake with the catch. Quality innings that.

  • 41.2

    FOUR! Kagiso Rabada to Virat Kohli. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control past deep extra cover for 4 runs. Majestic from Kohli. Rabada is flinging them down at 90mph, but that makes no difference to the Indian skipper. Extends the arms through the drive, and lifts it over extra cover for a one bounce four.

  • 40.5

    FOUR! Andile Phehlukwayo to Virat Kohli. Slower length ball, outside off stump down the track driving, well timed past deep extra cover for 4 runs. Walks down to the slower delivery, and laces a drive through the covers for four. Another masterclass in how to build an innings in a run chase. This man is unstoppable. The consistency is beyond ridiculous. What a player.

  • 40.4

    Andile Phehlukwayo to Ajinkya Rahane. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Duminy, fielded by Tahir.
