style=\"font-weight: 400;\">India lost their 19th consecutive ODI toss (yes, you read that right), and Aiden Markram had no hesitation in bowling first under sunny Ranchi skies. The afternoon pitch offered early movement, and Nandre Burger struck in the third over when Yashasvi Jaiswal top-edged a pull to Quinton de Kock. But what followed was pure vintage Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rohit, playing his first ODI since the 2023 World Cup final, launched into Prenelan Subrayen with two massive slog-sweeps for six, immediately overtaking Shahid Afridi\u2019s long-standing record of 351 ODI sixes. Kohli, at the other end, was in imperious touch. Two off-drives for six in the first 10 overs signalled his intent. The pair added 136 runs in just 110 balls, with India racing to 80\/1 in the powerplay and 161\/1 after 21.2 overs when Rohit was trapped lbw by a skidding Marco Jansen delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A mini-collapse followed as Ruturaj Gaikwad and Washington Sundar struggled against the older ball on a slowing surface, but Kohli farmed the strike masterfully. He reached his century off 102 balls with a trademark cover drive, leapt in joy, looked skyward with folded hands \u2013 an emotional release after months of scrutiny about his white-ball future. He then exploded, smashing 35 runs off his last 17 balls, including three sixes in the 49th over off Subrayen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KL Rahul, captaining in place of the rested\/injured regulars, played a perfect supporting role with 60 off 56, and some late Jadeja fireworks took India to 349\/8, a total that looked 30\u201340 runs above par on that surface during the afternoon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South Africa\u2019s reply began in nightmare fashion. Debutant Harshit Rana, bowling with serious pace and swing, produced an over for the ages in the second over: Ryan Rickelton bowled by a nip-backer on the first ball, Quinton de Kock edging a beauty on Rahul&#8217;s third ball. When Arshdeep Singh had Markram caught behind in the fifth over, South Africa were reeling at 11\/3.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Matthew Breetzke and Tony de Zorzi steadied things with a 66-run stand, followed by Dewald Brevis\u2019 37 off 28 that brought the crowd to life. But the game-changer arrived in the form of Marco Jansen. The giant all-rounder walked in at 130\/5 and proceeded to tear into the bowling, 70 off just 39 balls, including the fastest fifty by a South African in India (26 balls). He and Breetzke added 97 in just 68 balls, suddenly making 350 look gettable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enter Kuldeep Yadav. In the 34th over, Jansen toe-ended a pull to deep midwicket, and two balls later, Breetzke holed out to long-on. 227\/5 became 228\/7, and the game swung decisively. Corbin Bosch, on debut, refused to give up a maiden ODI fifty (67 off 51), taking the equation to 19 needed off 10 balls. But Arshdeep Singh bowled a sensational wicket-maiden in the 47th over, and Prasidh Krishna finally got his yorker right to dismiss Bosch in the 50th. South Africa all out for 332, a valiant effort, but India held on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Records_Broken_in_the_South_Africa_National_Cricket_Team_vs_the_India_National_Cricket_Team_Match_Scorecard\"><\/span>Key Records Broken in the South Africa National Cricket Team vs the India National Cricket Team Match Scorecard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Virat Kohli now has 52 ODI hundreds, extending his own world record.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rohit Sharma now has 352+ ODI sixes, the most in history.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">681 total runs the highest aggregate in an India-South Africa ODI.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marco Jansen\u2019s 26-ball fifty fastest by a South African in India.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">India hit 16 sixes joint-most in any ODI innings in 2025.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First instance in ODI history of batting positions 4\u20138 all scoring 35+ runs (South Africa).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Player_Performances_%E2%80%93_Who_Stood_Out\"><\/span>Player Performances \u2013 Who Stood Out?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><b>Virat Kohli (10\/10)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Simply majestic.
