India XI: 1 Rohit Sharma (capt), 2 KL Rahul, 3 Virat Kohli, 4 Suryakumar Yadav, 5 Rishabh Pant, 6 Dinesh Karthik (wk), 7 Axar Patel, 8 Harshal Patel, 9 R Ashwin ...

With wickets key for any chance of a South Africa win, Rabada bowled a third over inside the powerplay, and continued to trouble Rahul with his assortment of deliveries that jag in and angle away. After drinks, Rahul smacked the occasionally wayward Nortje for six over long on, to move to 21 in 37 balls, and after that, he never looked out of sorts again. Rabada, perhaps kept a tad too late to bowl his final over, was thumped by Suryakumar for consecutive fours with the game nearly sealed. The first six was fortuitous, with Nortje's pace taking it for a six over deep third. Chahar relied on a shorter length - with the ball getting old - but Arshdeep kept finding his full ball to Markram whizzing past the outside edge. Harshal, though, picked off Maharaj in a tidy 20th over to ensure India would be chasing at a run-rate of well under six. R Ashwin, introduced right after the powerplay after being picked ahead of Yuzvendra Chahal, had the liberty to show off his wares. They had South Africa on the mat early, reducing the visitors to 9 for 5 inside the third over, with a supreme display of swing bowling in both directions. His line was closer to the stumps, and relied on ensuring the lower order batters could not free his arms. At 9 for 5, the South African lower order had a steep mountain to climb. However, India always remained favorites, despite making only 17 runs in their first six overs; the 93-run unbeaten partnership between Rahul and Suryakumar took them home with 20 deliveries to spare and give the hosts a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. From the other end, Arshdeep had Quinton de Kock inside-edge a cut onto his stumps off a wide-ish length ball.

Here are highlights of the first T20 International between India and South Africa in Thiruvananthapuram.

SA 18/5 (4 overs): Markram gets the third four of his innings, he’s looked good so far. SA 50/6 (12 overs): Axar joins the attack and concedes just one run in his first over. SA 48/6 (10 overs): Harshal errs in his line a bit and Maharaj flicks it nicely past square-leg for four. SA 61/6 (14 overs): Another top over from Axar, just two runs from it. IND 47/2 (10 overs): Six! Arshdeep gets his second wicket of the over as Rossouw departs for a first-ball duck. The end of a memorable powerplay for India. Chahar returns to the attack and drops one short, Maharaj maintains a nice balance and pulls it all the way. 8.39 pm: Harshal concedes six runs and takes a wicket in the last over to finish with 2/26 from his four overs. Last five overs coming up, the Proteas will be hoping to get close to 100 somehow. IND 91/2 (15 overs): Poor bowling by Nortje and the Indian batters say thank you very much. The right-arm pacer bowls a full toss and gets hit by Rahul for six, before bowling another full toss and getting hit by Surya for four.
