India: 179/1 | Overs 30 | Dhawan 90*, Kohli 15*

After a tight over from Duminy, Kleinveldt releases the pressure by bowling a succor ball to Dhawan on his pads. Dhawan hits it past short fine-leg for a boundary. The pressure is released. India just look for singles after getting a boundary. Six have come off the over.
 


India: 173/1 | Overs 29 | Dhawan 85*, Kohli 14*

Duminy bowls four dot balls to Kohli. The fifth ball is hit to long-off for a single. The final ball is defended by Dhawan. So only one run has come off the Duminy over. A good over for them. But still no wicket taken.



India: 172/1 | Overs 28 | Dhawan 85*, Kohli 13*

Kleinveldt tries to bounce Kohli out. But Kohli is ready with the task and pulls him in front of square-leg for a couple of runs. Only four have come off the over. Wickets is what South Africa needs.

India: 168/1 | Overs 27 | Dhawan 84*, Kohli 10*

Duminy comes onto bowl. Indians have scored four singles off the over with no real difficulties. They are looking good. South Africa are looking for the second wicket. No bowler is looking like picking it up.



India: 164/1 | Overs 26 | Dhawan 82*, Kohli 8*

Dhawan hits the first ball wide off deep point and runs two. Off the third ball Kohli places the ball softly towards square-leg and runs two. The last ball is a tad short and Dhawan pulls it in front of square towards mid-wicket for a boundary. Ten have come off the over. Dhawan is looking solid.



India: 154/1 | Overs 25 | Dhawan 75*, Kohli 5*

Since the square boundaries are long the fielders are placed just a bit inside to prevent couples. But twice Dhawan has hit the ball over the deep fielders. Kleinveldt bowls one short to Dhawan who smashes the ball over the head of deep mid-wicket. Eight have come off the 25th over.



India: 146/1 | Overs 24 | Dhawan 69*, Kohli 3*

Tsotsobe comes into the attack. He is bowling back of the length deliveries. The fourth ball is a short delivery to Dhawan who just arches his back and hits the ball over wicket-keeper AB de Villiers's head for a boundary. The final ball is carted over long-off for a massive six. Good way to finish the over.



India: 134/1 | Overs 23 | Dhawan 58*, Kohli 2*

Peterson is not causing much trouble. Dhawan is looking to chip down the track and smother spin. Five have come off the over. India looking to consolidate for a few overs. The Delhi duo will be looking to forge a partnership.



India: 129/1 | Overs 22 | Dhawan 54*, Kohli 1* OUT! Rohit 65 (81)

Rohit Sharma falls for 65. He looks to go for a pull to not such a short delivery. He was cramped for room and ended up offering a simple catch to deep mid-wicket. McLaren gives some chin music to Virat Kohli first up. South Africa finally get the first breakthrough.



India: 126/0 | Overs 21 | Rohit 65*, Dhawan 52*

Morkel bowls a front-foot no-ball off the final delivery. But Rohit fails to take advantage of the free-hit. A tidy over from Morkel nevertheless. Only three runs have come off the over.

India: 123/0 | Overs 20 | Rohit 63*, Dhawan 51*

Dhawan brings up his second ODI fifty with a tight single. He pushes the ball towards covers and sets off for a single. It was a similar manner in which he got his first Test hundred. Rohit hits McLaren towards covers for a boundary. India are making merry. Eight have come off the over.

FACT: This is Shikhar Dhawan's second fifty in ODIs. The first one was against West Indies.



India: 115/0 | Overs 19 | Rohit 58*, Dhawan 49*

Morne Morkel comes into the attack. AB de Villiers is looking for wickets. Rohit is probably seeing the ball like a football. He gets into a good position and hits the short ball in front of square-leg. Seven runs have come off Morkel's comeback over. But no wicket yet.

FACT: Seam bowlers have taken 82 per cent wickets at Cardiff.



India: 108/0 | Overs 18 | Rohit 53*, Dhawan 48*

McLaren has hit Dhawan's helmet. The ball ricocheted off his helmet and went to square-leg for one leg-bye. Five runs have come off the over. India are looking to hit the ball in the gaps. Ones and twos are all what they are looking for. Both the batsmen are well-set.



India: 103/0 | Overs 17 | Rohit 51*, Dhawan 46*

JP Duminy being brought into the attack. Rohit gets onto his fifty with a single past long-on. He played out a couple of dot balls at the start of the over. Three singles have come off Duminy's first over. India are just looking for singles in the middle part of the innings.



India: 101/0 | Overs 16 | Rohit 49*, Dhawan 45*

McLaren looks to bowl back of a length delivery but gives room to Rohit who hits the ball past backward point for a couple of runs off the first ball. India bring up century partnership. The opening combination has clicked in the first game. Five have come off the over. Drinks being called for.



India: 96/0 | Overs 15 | Rohit 45*, Dhawan 44*

Robin Peterson has been targeted by Shikhar Dhawan. The first two balls were hit through the covers for a boundary. The feature of those shots were the use of the feet. Dhawan smothered the spin by doing that. The third ball was a full-toss which was swept behind square-leg for three runs. Fourteen came off the 15th over.



India: 82/0 | Overs 14 | Rohit 43*, Dhawan 32*

South Africa are trying to bounce out the Indians. This time the plan almost worked. Kleinveldt pitches one short to Dhawan who pulls the ball but doesn't keep it down. Fine-leg came in a little and the ball goes over him. The last ball has pulled through mid-wicket for a boundary by Rohit.



India: 72/0 | Overs 13 | Rohit 38*, Dhawan 27*

Robin Peterson the left-arm spinner comes into the attack. He concedes five runs. Indian openers are milking the bowling now. New ball has not got wickets for South Africa. They are looking to be a tad defensive.



India: 67/0 | Overs 12 | Rohit 34*, Dhawan 26*

Kleindveldt tries a bouncer to Dhawan but it doesn't rise up. As a result it turns to be a begign delivery which Dhawan swivels and hits it past square-leg. The fourth delivery was a wide delivery for height. Eight runs have come off the over.

 


India: 59/0 | Overs 11 | Rohit 32*, Dhawan 21*

McLaren is getting good bounce. He tries a bouncer to Rohit which doesn't get up that much. Rohit gets into a good position and hits it between square-leg and fine-leg. Rohit is looking dangerous.



India: 53/0 | Overs 10 | Rohit 27*, Dhawan 20*

Kleinveldt looking to look for the swing pitches one up to Dhawan who smashes the ball through covers for three runs. The fourth ball was a front-foot no-ball. But Dhawan gets just a single off the free-hit.  Six have come off the last Powerplay over.



India: 47/0 | Overs 9 | Rohit 26*, Dhawan 16*

Ryan McLaren starts his spell with a benign leg-side delivery which Dhawan dispatches past fine-leg. Rohit slices the fourth ball of the over past backward point for a single. This is an eight-run over. All of a sudden South Africa are looking befuddled. They chose to bowl in order to get early wickets. They have not got any wicket.



India: 39/0 | Overs 8 | Rohit 25*, Dhawan 11*

Rory Kleinveldt is the first change bowler. He tries to bounce out Rohit. But Rohit hits him for a four over square-leg. The sound his bat made was cracking. Two balls later a sublime cover-drive from Rohit makes it a nine-run over for India. Rohit has got to a wonderful start.



India: 30/0 | Overs 7 | Rohit 17*, Dhawan 10*

Rohit is looking confident. He hooks Morkel behind square-leg for a boundary. Still Morkel is bowling short of length and Rohit is still a bit iffy yet he is selective. A compelling contest is on at Cardiff.



India: 26/0 | Overs 6 | Rohit 13*, Dhawan 10*

Rohit starts the sixth over with a hit over point for a six. Tsotsobe bowls a wide length delivery for which he is punished. The last ball is again a length delivery which Dhawan punches between covers and mid-off for the best shot of the morning. Young Indian openers are off to a steady start.



India: 15/0 | Overs 5 | Rohit 6*, Dhawan 6*

Morkel bowls a perfect bouncer to Dhawan who plays an ugly shot which falls short of fine-leg. He is getting a lot of steep bounce. Only two runs come off Morkel's third over. India are off to a cautious start.



India: 13/0 | Overs 4 | Rohit 6*, Dhawan 5*

Rohit gets on the groove with a sublime cover-drive. The balance while playing the shot was excellent. The front foot is going to the ball in confident fashion. Tsotsobe bowled a couple of wides down the leg-side. He was a tad loose compared to his first over.



India: 7/0 | Overs 3 | Rohit 2*, Dhawan 5*

Morkel bowls in the corridor of uncertainty. South Africa have designed a Test match like fielding - a couple of slips are waiting to catch Dhawan's edge. Morkel is bowling an incessant line around off-stump. The last ball was on the pads which Dhawan worked for a couple of runs.



India: 5/0 | Overs 2 | Rohit 2*, Dhawan 3*

Lonwabo Tsotsobe begins the first over with tight line outside off-stump. Rohit leaves the deliveries. He edges the third ball which falls just short of the second slip and Shikhar Dhawan sets off for a risky single. He is lucky to survive. A direct hit would have ended his stay. Dhawan hit the third ball straight for three runs.



India: 1/0 | Overs 1 | Rohit 1*, Dhawan 0*

Morne Morkel starts the first over well. There is a lot of bounce and carry in the wicket. Rohit Sharma, India's opening batsman is watchful. Only one run has come off the first over. India are a tad watchful. They will look to negotiate the bowling early on.
