IND vs SA, 1st T20I live score Updates: India are in complete control of the proceedings as South Africa lose their seventh wicket after being put into bat. Arshdeep Singh, Deepak Chahar and Harshal Patel have shared six wickets between them so far inside the first 10 overs of the South African innings. Arshdeep struck thrice on either side of Chahar’s first and third over strikes to leave South Africa reeling at nine for five. Harshal Patel also landed a blow after Aiden Markram and Wayne Parnell tried to revive South Africa’s innings. He dismissed the in-form Markram to put the visitors six down. Chahar had earlier got the ball rolling for India with the wicket of the Proteas captain Temba Bavuma in the final ball of the opening over. Arshdeep then dismissed Quinton de Kock, Rilee Rossouw and David Miller in the second over to rattle the visitors. Tristan Stubbs also perished in the third over with Chahar bagging his second. India made four changes from the third T20I against Australia, with Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah and Yuzvendra Chahal make way for Deepak Chahar, Rishabh Pant, Arshdeep Singh and Ravichandran Ashwin.
