Watch South Africa Vs. India Cricket Live Stream: 5th ODI, Start Time, Preview As India Goes For Series Clinch


The India national cricket team can gain a measure of redemption by clinching a six-match One Day International series against host South Africa in the fifth ODI, which will stream live on Tuesday from Port Elizabeth, South Africa. A series-winning fourth victory would mark an encouraging bounce-back for the Men in Blue after they dropped the three-match Test series that opened the current tour, two matches to one. But South Africa, which appeared on the verge of defeat after losing the opening trio of ODI games, bounced back for a rain-affected victory in the fourth.

After omitting 38-year-old leg-break spinner Imran Tahir for the fourth ODI, South Africa may look to the veteran to stifle the India batting attack on what is expected to be a slow pitch at St. George’s Park on Tuesday. The Proteas are also expected to stick with their world-elite batsman, A.B. de Villiers, who made his series debut at the Wanderers. The 33-year-old was good for just 26 runs before being caught at long leg by Rohit Sharma off of a delivery from Hardik Pandya.

Hashim Amla had the high total for the hosts, with 33 as the Proteas hit a Duckworth-Lewis target of 205 for a five-wicket win.

Leg-break spinner Imran Tahir is expected to provide key overs on Tuesday as South Africa fights to keep the ODI series against India alive.
