The Proteas dominated the first game with the bat. They set up a target of 250 in 40 overs. The game was reduced to 40 overs per side due to frequent rain disruptions.

Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan got the team through with their respective magnificent innings. Iyer scored a hundred, whereas Ishan fell short of 7 runs and was dismissed for 93 runs.
