South Africa vs India 1st ODI 2022 Live Score Updates: South Africa captain Temba Bavuma won the toss and opted to bat in the first ODI at the Boland Park In Paarl against India. After a disappointing Test series loss despite taking lead post the first Test match, Team India will look to make amends. In the absence of regular limited-overs skipper Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul will lead the Indian squad for the first time in ODIs. All-rounder Venkatesh Iyer is making his debut for Team India in the ODI format. All eyes will again be on former skipper Virat Kohli as he tries to fit in purely as a batter in the national side. South Africa, on the other side, will aim to make most of the home conditions and deny India in the shorter format as well. (LIVE SCORECARD)
