KL Rahul, who rejoined the Indian team for the first game of the series against South Africa, led the team without Rohit Sharma to a commanding victory over the hosts on Sunday. The Proteas' startling batting collapse in the first One Day International (ODI) at the New Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg was set in motion by pacers Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan. Fast bowler Arshdeep opened his 50-over career with an eight-ball duck, making Reeza Hendricks pay for not taking a wicket in his first three ODI appearances for India.
