Match Winner: India 

In the last five ODIs between these two sides, India bagged four victories while South Africa could secure only one win. Though India doesn't have Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer on their side, we can expect the Indian ODI team to have a home advantage on their side, to start the series on a winning note.
