SA 165-1 (23 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

A desperate Dhoni brings back pacer Mohit as he seems to make a breakthrough. De Kock looks to continue his free-flowing approach as he looks to loft it down the ground but mistimes as it falls over mid-off for two runs.

There is some turn in the pitch as Mishra produces a perfect leg-spinner to beat du Plessis, giving away just two runs in the over.

De Kock picks Mohit over fine leg fence for a six to move into the 90s while bringing up South Africa's 150, in the 23rd over.

He drives the next ball through the covers for a four before a single helps him race to his century from 78 balls, having hit 16 fours and a six.

This is de Kock's fifth hundred against India, from just nine innings, having scored 658 runs so far at an impressive average of 82.

Mohit's disappointing day with the ball continues, having given away 16 runs in his fifth over, for poor figures of 5-0-51-1.
