After seven overs, India were 62 for one while South Africa had snailed to 30 for one. South Africa had no such luxury of finding a weak link in the India bowling attack and when they found a couple, it was too late at the end. Perhaps not trusting his left-arm spinner Axar Patel, Rohit bowled Suresh Raina for a couple of runs in the initial part of South Africa innings. Earlier, Raina had given India the fillip early on as they raced to a great start. 4, fell just when India needed another quick knock from him, particularly with Dhawan struggling to get the boundaries at the other end.
