Ravindra Jadeja was brought into the game during the first powerplay, and he took the wicket of Temba Bavuma. Jadeja also secured his second wicket by winning an LBW (Leg Before Wicket) decision against Heinrich Klaasen. He later clean bowled David Miller.
Virat Kohli played exceptionally well, scoring his 49th ODI century, which equals a record. This performance contributed significantly to India’s victory.
India played a great cricket match against South Africa in the World Cup. Virat Kohli scored his 49th century in One Day Internationals (ODI), which is as many centuries as Sachin Tendulkar, a cricket legend. This happened on Kohli’s 35th birthday, and he reached the century mark in 119 balls with 10 fours.
Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill opened the batting for India, and they had a good start with a partnership of 62 runs. However, South Africa’s bowlers took two important wickets, including Rohit Sharma’s, which slowed down India’s progress. India decided to bat first after winning the toss, and there was a change in South Africa’s playing XI to include an extra spinner.
India has been performing exceptionally well in the World Cup, having won all of their 7 matches so far and being the first team to officially qualify for the knockout stages. Unfortunately, they’ve been missing their star all-rounder, Hardik Pandya, due to an ankle injury.
Rohit Sharma’s team has been doing great in the World Cup, with both their bowlers and batsmen among the top performers. South Africa has also been impressive, except for one loss to the Netherlands. Their opening pair, Quinton de Kock and Temba Bavuma, has been strong, and lower-order batsmen like Klaasen and Miller have performed well.
