Overs 19.1: OUT! Yuzvendra Chahal cleans up Rassie van der Dussen for 22. SA 78/3

GAWN! Bumrah on fireplace! Edge, and Virat in industry at the third slip. It was once bowled at 143kmph and kicked up with some extra leap. De Kock (10) may just do little and the skipper takes a nice upper-cup catch. SA 24/2
Bumrah's begin to #CWC19 . . . 2 . . 1b W 👏 https://t.co/3aj8vnHrFc

End of Over 2: Banana swing, ala Kapil! Just a little of a contest between Bumrah and De Kock, team-mates at Mumbai Indians, as the ball is going past the bat more than as soon as in the over. Smiles exchanged. And a close call for the left-hander as neatly when he misjudged a second run. Dhoni missed the stumps. SA 4/0

End of Over 1: A unmarried each and every for Amla and De Kock to get South Africa going. Little motion as neatly for Bhuvi, but it surely seems a good surface to bat on. 2/0
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to open bowling for India. SA will likely be glad to have Hashim Amla walking out with Quinton de Kock to open.

CAPTAIN TALK
Virat Kohli: The crowd beef up will likely be large for us. Lots of people who reside right here and loads who are travelling right here. For us its about holding composure, remembering why we got the results in the final two years and proceeding the same means. Bhuvi, Bumrah, Kuldeep and Chahal are all playing. When these guys and Hardik are playing at the side of Jadhav, we're always a strong bowling attack. I'm very excited, after such a lot cricket in the final two years. Couldn't be more grateful and glad.
Faf du Plessis: We are having a bat. Mostly as a result of the make-up of the aspect against two spinners, that is the most suitable choice. Amla is back for this game. Morris continues to be playing, and we are bringing in an additional spinner. We did not have the perfect get started, but we wish to stay going. We wish to win 6 games to get to the semis, we've got seven games left.
