India vs South Africa, Ranchi ODI: The first ODI match between India and South Africa will be played today i.e. on 30th November at the JSCA International Stadium in Ranchi. The match will start at 1:30 pm Indian time, while the toss will take place half an hour earlier at 1 pm. Team India will play under the captaincy of KL Rahul, because regular captain Shubman Gill is out due to injury. At the same time, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen again in blue jersey after about a month. Before this match, Jharkhand State Cricket Association Secretary Shahbaz Nadeem has given a big update regarding the pitch.
How much total is safe to win in Ranchi?
It is not easy for the batsmen to play for a long time on the Ranchi ground. The wicket here is usually slow and less bouncy, which helps the spinners more. So far, 6 ODI matches have been played at JSCA Cricket Stadium, out of which the chasing team has won 3. This means that winning the toss and bowling first is more effective. Apart from this, the average score of the first innings on the ground here is 265 runs.
Shahbaz Nadeem told how many runs will be scored
However, former Team India spinner and JSCA Secretary Shahbaz Nadeem has said that this time the pitch is going to be more favorable for batting. Nadeem said,
This will be a very good batting pitch. Will have to be done on a score of 300 runs. The team making more than 320 total will be ahead. I can say that this will be a very good ODI match.

Fans will get a chance to dance
Looking at the way Shahbad Nadeem has given his prediction, it seems that cricket fans can see rain of fours and sixes on the Ranchi ground today. Indian supporters can get to see high scoring matches on this ground. Both the teams have more than one explosive explosive batsman. Therefore even the target of 300+ score will not be safe.
How is India’s record in Ranchi?
Team India’s record in Ranchi has been good. Till now 6 matches have been played, out of which 3 have been won and 3 have been lost. At the same time, the result of one match has not come. The last ODI match against India and South Africa was played on this ground in the year 2022. In that match, Team India had won by 7 wickets. However, South Africa has recently clean swept India in the Test series. In such a situation, this series is not going to be easy for the Indian team.
