Thiruvananthapuram offered a spicy pitch as both the team India and South Africa finds it tough to get going. Winning the toss, Rohit Sharma rightly chose to bowl first. Deepak Chahar gave India a perfect start by sending off Temba Bavuma. Arshdeep Singh in the next over, took away three wickets reducing SA to 8/4. The swing both Deepak and Arshdeep extracted are commendable. Deepak took another wicket in his 2nd over and SA was down to 9/5. They lost 5 wickets in just 15 balls and the match’s result was decided then.

However, Keshav Maharaj played sensibly taking the team’s total past 100. In reply, India lost both Rohit and Virat early. However, KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav played caution mixed with aggression and sees the team cross the winning line. Both batters completed their respective half-centuries.

Arshdeep has won the player of the match.
