India vs South Africa 1st ODI Live Streaming: When, where and how to watch IND vs SA live on TV and online
India vs South Africa Live Streaming: Here are all the details for the first ODI of the three-match series between the two teams.
India will aim to put the humiliation of their recent home Test whitewash against South Africa behind them as they face the Proteas in a three-match ODI series starting Sunday in Ranchi. All eyes will return to Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who will be playing in India colours on home soil for the first time since March, a short but crucial audition that could shape their 2027 World Cup prospects.
Both stars looked rusty on their comeback during last month’s ODI series in Australia, beginning with ducks that fuelled speculation about their World Cup future. But by the end of the series in Sydney, their vintage partnership, capped by a century stand for the second wicket, served as a timely reminder not to write them off.
Attention will also be on India’s team combination, with several senior players unavailable. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj have been rested, while regular captain Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer continue to recover from injuries.
South Africa enter the series riding high after their Test triumph and will look to carry that momentum into a format where their transitioning squad has often been inconsistent. Even without pace spearheads Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje, the visitors remain confident that the belief gained from red-ball success can translate into white-ball sharpness, especially in conditions that will once again test their adaptability.
