South Africa cricketer Ryan Rickelton took a stunning catch to get rid of Indian batter Virat Kohli in the first ODI of the three-match series at the JSCA International Stadium in Ranchi on Sunday, November 30. Kohli entertained the crowd with a sensational batting display but failed to stay until the end of India's innings.
The right-handed batter reached his first century at home since 2023. He walked in early in the fourth over but instantly took control of the innings. Kohli shifted gears from the start. He began attacking the bowlers in the power play, which lifted India's scoring rate and put pressure on the South African bowling attack.
