Indian skipper Shikhar Dhawan to the toss and opted to field first in the match. South African opening batters Quinton De Kock and Jannemann Malan were up to the task and both played controlled innings at the start. The bowling duo of Avesh Khan and Mohammed Siraj bowled tight lines and lengths but the South African batters managed to sail through.
Shardul Thakur came to bowl as the 1st change and immediately made an impact with his bowling. South African batter Janneman Malan knicked the 2nd delivery and it went straight to Shubman Gill's hands who was standing at the first slip but the ball went in and out off his hands and he dropped it.
