India 130/3 vs South Africa: A Thrilling Start to the Series!

India got off to a blazing start in the first ODI against South Africa, posting a solid 130/3 at the halfway mark. The chase was on, but could the Proteas keep up?

The Indian openers, Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan, came out firing on all cylinders, putting on a quickfire 70-run partnership. Rohit was in the mood, smashing a quickfire 43 before falling to the ever-reliable Kagiso Rabada. Dhawan, however, continued his good form, reaching his half-century in style with a trademark boundary.

The introduction of Keshav Maharaj into the attack proved to be a turning point, as he picked up two quick wickets in the form of Dhawan and Virat Kohli. However, India's middle order, led by the ever-reliable KL Rahul, remained strong, keeping the scoreboard ticking.

The South African bowlers were struggling to contain the Indian batsmen, with their line and length being off. However, their fielding was excellent, with a couple of crucial run-outs preventing India from scoring even more freely.

The battle between the bat and ball continued to rage on, with India looking to finish strong and set a challenging target for the Proteas. Could they maintain this momentum and secure a commanding lead? Only time would tell!

The second half of the innings was going to be crucial, with India needing to keep up the scoring rate and avoid any further setbacks.
