04/02/2026 21:32

As expected, Arshdeep Singh has the new ball in hand. Aiden Markram and George Linde are opening. Linde is someone who usually bats at 7 or 8. Quite a change-up by South Africa. But then, that's what warm-ups are for.
However, the tactic doesn't work as Linde departs for a 4-ball duck.

04/02/2026 20:50
India end up with 240/5 as Harshit Rana let the bouncer go past his head, thinking it would be a wide. But the umpires don't agree.

IND vs SA LIVE: Runs dry up
04/02/2026 20:33
As the ball gets older, the run rate has suddenly dipped. Both Rinku Singh and Axar Patel are struggling to score against the off-the pace delivery. India have gone 14 balls without hitting a boundary.
IND vs SA LIVE: Excellent from Bosch
04/02/2026 20:28
Amid the six-hitting party, Corbin Bosch bowls a five-run over, restricting Axar Patel. India are 200/3 in 16.

IND vs SA LIVE: Tilak Varma departs
04/02/2026 20:01
South Africa have their first wicket as Tilak Varma departs for 45 off 18. Marco Jansen has bowled brilliantly today and his yorker cut back in to shatter the leg stump. India 146/3 in 10.5 overs.
IND vs SA LIVE: SKY survives
04/02/2026 19:57

IND vs SA LIVE: Tilak Varma on song
04/02/2026 19:44
The warm-up match was only for Tilak Varma. As he missed out on the IND vs NZ series due to an injury, India wanted to see if he was back in rhythm. And he is proving that he never lost his touch. Tilak is going after South African bowling attack as India get to 100 in just 8 overs.

IND vs SA LIVE: Ishan retired out
04/02/2026 19:40
Even as Abhishek Sharma played a different role, Ishan Kishan hammered a 20-ball 53. And that was enough for Gautam Gambhir. Ishan has passed all the tests with flying colours and he calls Ishan back. Tilak Varma comes to the crease.

04/02/2026 19:01

IND vs SA LIVE: Reminder
04/02/2026 18:48
This is a warm-up clash, so there won't be a particular batting order. Sanju Samson could also come to bat as the team management would want to test everyone.

04/02/2026 18:40

IND vs SA LIVE: End of Samson
04/02/2026 18:36
Suryakumar Yadav has just confirmed that Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan would open for India today. And that means, there is either no place for Sanju Samson or he will bat in the middle-order, just in case. Ishan is going to be the No 1 choice as the keeper-batter after Samson failed the acid test in the IND vs NZ series.
"Going to bat first. I've heard there might be dew later on, so we want to challenge our bowlers. Want to test ourselves tonight. Definitely Ishan and Abhishek (to open). When you play the sport, it comes with a lot of responsibility. Pressure is always there. But at the same time, there's so many people coming out to support you. Gives you an extra advantage. Just want to follow what we've been doing in the last one and a half years. Continue those good habits," Suryakumar Yadav said.
