But we got a decent score and then the seamers did the job. We lost a wicket in the first over. Then got runs and then the seamers did well. We needed Kohli to go out there and play the situation.

Jasprit Bumrah is opening the bowling, his former Mumbai Indians teammate Quinton de Kock on strike with South Africa captain Temba Bavuma at the other end.

India vs South Africa Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Well it is more of an unwanted record for Marco Jansen.

He has broken his own record for most runs conceded by a South African bowler in a World Cup game. Today, he went for a cool 94.

India vs South Africa Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: The man speaks after that colossal knock. Here is the transcription: “It was a wicket that was tricky to bat on, we got a great start from Rohit and Shubman, my job was to keep it going on. The ball started gripping and turning, it slowed down and then my role was to bat deep. That was what was communicated to me by the team management, Shreyas played well and we got a few more runs towards the end. We had a lot of chats during the Asia Cup, we bat at 3 and 4, so this was the partnership that was needed to take the game forward. We don't have Hardik in the team, so we knew a wicket or two could cost us, we had to dig deep and take the match deep. I'm grateful to god for giving me the chance to play and contribute to the team's success. It's great to get a hundred on my birthday in front of this big crowd at this great venue. The pitch is on the slower side, we have a quality bowling line-up as well, but we'll have to work hard. Wickets will be the key, getting a couple early will put them under pressure with the way this pitch is behaving.”

India vs South Africa Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Just a single off the last ball and he receives congratulations from a number of the South African players. An extraordinary innings, full of grit and at the end of it all, Kohli equals Sachin Tendulkar's seemingly unmatchable ODI century record in just over half the number of innings that the great man played. Kohli ends unbeaten on 101 off 121, Jadeja on 29 off 15.

India vs South Africa Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: The next ball is hit over cover. Jadeja has gone 6, 4, 4 in this over. He takes a single off the next ball and so Kohli to face the last.
