India vs South Africa 1st ODI : IND beat SA by 8 wickets

India vs South Africa 1st ODI Highlights: Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan led India to a resounding win in the first ODI

India vs South Africa 1st ODI Highlights: Arshdeep Singh opened his account in ODI cricket with a five-wicket haul while Avesh Khan took four as South Africa crumbled to a record low score of 116 in their first ODI against India at the Wanderers on Sunday. It is the lowest score for South Africa at home in an ODI match. Arshdeep took three early wickets as South Africa lost four inside the first 10 overs. Matters were made worse for the hosts when Avesh then took two back to back wickets off the first two balls of the 11t0, leading to South Africa losing their top six in just over 10 overs. The collapse continued with Andile Phehlukwayo providing some resistance. Avesh and Arshdeep both picked up four wickets and the latter eventually dismissed Phehlukwayo for 33 off 49 to finish his fifer. Avesh couldn’t do the same though and it was Kuldeep Yadav who took the last South African wicket and ended the hosts’ innings. In reply, it took India only 16.3 overs to chase down the target. Debutant southpaw Sai Sudharsan’s (55*) and Shreyas Iyer’s (52) explosive knocks saw the visitors go 1-0 up in the series with a facile eight-wicket victory.
