refreshRight then, it was a run fest in Ranchi with a match aggregate of 681 runs. If this opening game is anything to go by, we are in for a cracker of a series. The two teams will now meet in Raipur on Wednesday, 3rd December, for the second ODI of this three-match series. Rested for this game, Temba Bavuma and Keshav Maharaj will most likely be back for the next one, and their return will be a boost as the Proteas look to draw level. As for India, they will be pleased with the all-round effort, especially the way their senior players led the way and how the pace attack bowled. They will now look to carry this momentum into the second game and try to seal the series. The first ball in Raipur will be bowled at 1.30 pm IST (8 am GMT). As always, you can join us early for the build-up. Until next time, take care and goodbye!
Virat Kohli is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his superb ton. Kohli says it was nice to get into the game the way he did today. Adds that he felt the pitch played quite well for the first 20 to 25 overs before it slowed down, and his focus was on enjoying himself out there. Mentions that once he got a start, it became about building an innings. Shares that he has never been a big believer in doing a lot of preparation. For him, the game has always been more mental than anything else. Further says that he works physically hard because that is the way he lives, not something he does specifically for cricket, and being mentally sharp is what matters most to him. Kohli states that whenever he arrives somewhere, he makes sure he arrives at a hundred per cent. Tells that he wanted to get a proper feel of the conditions, so he batted both in the day and under lights after reaching Ranchi early. With more than 300 ODI games behind him, he believes that if you stay in touch with the game and understand when you are hitting the ball well, the rhythm naturally comes back. When asked by Harsha Bhogle, he quashes the rumours and makes it clear that he is continuing to play this one format.
KL Rahul, the Indian captain, says he felt a bit nervous leading the ODI side again after a while, but is really pleased with how the bowlers stuck to their plans and kept taking wickets. He mentions that he is enjoying batting at No. 6, a role he has been given in the last few series, and feels it is helping him grow as a player. He praises Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for their exceptional performances, saying it is always fun to watch them bat and that their presence in the dressing room is invaluable to the group. Rahul also speaks highly of Harshit Rana’s progress, noting that he has the potential to become a very good fast bowler. He ends by acknowledging Kuldeep Yadav’s importance, calling him someone who consistently steps up and takes crucial wickets for the team.
The skipper of South Africa, Aiden Markram says he is really proud of the effort from the team. Adds that it was great to watch the guys step up and do their thing. Mentions that they never lost belief, and there was genuine hope in the dressing room throughout. Shares that they knew the ball would swing under the lights, and felt that chasing was the best way to win the game. Admits it is up to the top three, including himself, to give the side a solid start, and we all saw what the middle order is capable of. Shares that he is very proud of the group for showing plenty of character. Further says that any team would love to bat as deep as possible, and both Jansen and Bosch contribute brilliantly in that regard.
Time for the presentation ceremony...
India's Kuldeep Yadav is in for a chat. Kuldeep says he and KL Rahul had strategised to stay attacking and look for wickets, mixing up his deliveries with scrambled seam and seam-up variations while targeting a back-of-a-length area. He explains that bowling in wet conditions is always a challenge and praises the way Matthew Breetzke and Marco Jansen batted against spin. Kuldeep adds that the plan to slow the ball up and vary his pace brought him Jansen’s crucial wicket, a moment he feels turned the game in India’s favour.
Earlier, India were asked to bat first on a surface that allowed batters to hit through the line. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma capitalised with a 136-run stand, with Rohit being dropped on 1 by Tony de Zorzi. After Rohit fell, the Proteas pulled things back as the ball got older and their variations kicked in. The incoming batters struggled for fluency, and Kohli was starved of strike. He brought up his 52nd ODI ton before his surge was cut short. Late contributions from KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja pushed India towards 350 before excellent death bowling from Corbin Bosch held them to 349.
Jansen’s innings really made India sweat and closed the gap between the two sides. Through the Jansen-Breetzke stand, the tourists had the momentum with them, but the game turned on its head when both set batters fell within three balls. Corbin Bosch kept the flame of the chase alive, with support coming from Prenelan Subrayen and Nandre Burger. The task eventually proved too steep for Bosch, as in dewy conditions India’s pace trio held their nerve at the death to close out the contest.
It was the worst possible start for the Proteas in pursuit of 350, as they were reduced to 11/3 inside five overs. After making early inroads, Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh lost a bit of discipline, and Matthew Breetzke cashed in to get going. Breetzke led the recovery with Tony de Zorzi offering a steady hand, but the southpaw did not last long. First Dewald Brevis and then Marco Jansen counter-attacked, with Breetzke shifting into a supporting role.
A really good game of cricket. An ODI classic that ebbed and flowed with plenty of momentum shifts, but in the end, India emerged as the winners to go 1-0 up in the series. Given the start they had, finishing on 349 felt like they left a few runs out there, but their bowlers ensured it was enough on the day. It was a spirited chase from South Africa after being 11/3, and the true Proteas fight was on display as they kept landing punches. Reflecting on the game, they will look back at some of the loose shots in the first Powerplay that put them on the back foot, and will feel that if any of their top three had played a long innings, the chase could have unfolded very differently.
49.2OUT! CAUGHT! India win the 1st ODI by 17 runs. PHEW! What a game we have had in Ranchi.

46.1OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Slower bumper, on off, Nandre Burger initially looks to ramp it over the keeper but then bails out. He fails to drop his guard and leaves his bat hanging.

38.2Spin and bounce for Jadeja. Tossed up, around off, the ball lands and kicks up on the batter, beating him on the outside edge. KL Rahul fails to gather this. Had Rahul gathered it, it would have been curtains for Corbin Bosch, as his back leg had been drawn out of the crease.
38.1Fuller on off, Prenelan Subrayen drives this to long off for one.

34.3Fuller on off, Prenelan Subrayen drives this through cover for one.
34.2Fuller on off, Corbin Bosch smashes this towards the left of Kohli at long off. Bosch was keen on the second but Prenelan Subrayen denies and rightly so. The throw comes in flat from Kohli towards the bowler and Jadeja just breaks the stumps and appeals for a runout at his end. The umpire sends this upstairs just to be sure and the replay shows that Corbin Bosch was well inside the crease even before Ravindra Jadeja gathered this.
34.1Fired into the batter, Corbin Bosch punches this to Jadeja's right.

The ball doesn't travel the distance and goes straight into the hands of Ravindra Jadeja at the deep mid-wicket fence.
The physio comes on for the concussion check. Matthew Breetzke seems to be fine. He is ready to resume. A change in bowling as Kuldeep Yadav (6-0-43-1) returns to the attack.
32.6Good slower one, into the deck from Rana. Matthew Breetzke swings for the pull early but misses and gets hit on his helmet. Mandatory concussion check to follow. Brteetzke looks okay but this was a good delivery by Harshit Rana.

Time for a drinks break. India's dominance with early wickets and that of Dewald Brevis has been short-lived as Marco Jansen and Matthew Breetzke's explosive partnership has shifted the momentum in South Africa's favour. Power hitting from Jansen and elegant batting from Breetzke have kept the Proteas in the hunt, needing 144 runs off 120 balls to win.

28.5Wide! Arshdeep goes short, outside off, Jansen lets it be. Wide given for height, much to the surprise of KL Rahul. It is the correct call as the ball was indeed over head height.

28.3In the air... but lands safely! Arshdeep switches to over the wicket and pushes the short ball across the right-hander. Jansen plays a half-hearted pull with the ball going across him.

DRINKS BREAK! With the fall of the 4th wicket, the umpires have called for a hydration break. It was turning out to be a good recovery for South Africa after being rocked early. If they were to get anywhere close to the target, the partnership held the key but with Tony de Zorzi gone, Matthew Breetzke has a lot resting on his shoulders. Dewald Brevis is expected to come in next, and then it is the all-rounders. India will be relieved to have broken the flourishing stand and will look to build the pressure in the middle phase. No sign of dew just yet and that will come as good news for the bowling side. Dewald Brevis joins Breetzke out in the middle.
14.6OUT! LBW! Kuldeep Yadav breaks the partnership and what an excellent review it turned out to be. Scrambled seam from Kuldeep Yadav, pitching on middle and straightening after landing in the line of the stumps.

The ball goes through and hits him on the front pad before clattering into the back pad. Loud appeal for LBW but the umpire turns it down. KL Rahul sends this upstairs after some consultation with ever-so-keen Kuldeep Yadav. It is three reds on the Ball Tracker with the ball pitching in line and smashing into the top of the middle stump. Kuldeep cuts short a promising-looking innings of Tony de Zorzi on 39.
LBW review! Not given on-field, but Kuldeep Yadav is pretty convinced. KL Rahul takes the review after having a chat with the bowler. Where has the ball pitched? Is it in line? 'The Ball Tracking is building', says the third umpire, Rod Tucker. It has pitched in line. Three reds on Ball Tracking and Tony de Zorzi is gone.
