IND vs SA 1st ODI Playing 11 Squad Update
India started their ODI campaign in South Africa today under KL Rahul in Johannesburg and as expected the seasoned wicketkeeper batter Sanju Samson got the chance to play the match.
Sanju was not a member of India’s World Cup roster, but as he returns to the squad, he will undoubtedly want to make an impression and pass the no.6 test.
He might not be able to keep the wickets because the captain wants to keep the wickets for the team.
Rinku Singh, who impressed everyone with his finishing skills in the Australia and then in South Africa T20I series failed to make the cut in the first ODI as Sanju has been selected to do the finishing job.
South Africa won the toss and opted to bat, while Indian skipper also expressed his wish to bat.

“Special day, watched a lot of cricket on TV – the Pink ODI is a big occasion here in South Africa. Looking forward to a cracker of a game. There was a of spin and it was try, we’ll try to put pressure on them. Sai Sudharsan is on debut today. There are a few names that have played a lot of IPL cricket. Ruturaj did well, Tilak seems exciting, Sanju is always exciting. We’ve got Axar, Kuldeep who’d love to see some spin. They know what pressure is and how to handle it. They all come with IPL experience, hopefully that helps them here and they can perform to the best of their ability,” said KL Rahul.
