IND vs SA LIVE: Captain Temba Bavuma, Rassie van der Dussen pile centuries to put Proteas in command with record partnership

South Africa captain Temba Bavuma scored a sedate century to frustrate the Indian bowlers in a record stand with Rassie van der Dussen during IND vs SA 1st ODI. The Proteas were in trouble having lost Janneman Malan early, while Quinton de Kock and Aiden Markram also departed in quick succession to leave the hosts reeling at 68/3.

Bavuma operated cautiously as he and Dussen built a strong partnership against an Indian attack. The Proteas skipper focused on rotating the strike, while Dussen took the aggressive approach finding the boundary at an increased frequency. Their partnership is a record for the fourth wicket in IND vs SA ODIs, going past the 171 put on Quinton de Kock and AB de Villiers at Centurion in 2013.
