India wins 1st one-dayer against S Africa by 1 run

Wayne Parnell was run out on the last delivery to give India a one-run victory Sunday in the opening limited-overs international against South Africa.
Parnell was run out for 49 as he attempted a score leveling second run off the match's last delivery from seam bowler Praveen Kumar, leaving South Africa all out on 297 after India had made 298-9 in 50 overs.
No. 9 batsman Parnell and No. 10 Dale Steyn (35) shared a brisk 65-run partnership for the ninth wicket to revive South Africa after a middle order collapse saw it slump to 225-8 despite a fine knock of 89 by skipper Jacques Kallis.
South Africa needed 10 runs from the last over, but lost Steyn on the second ball as Kumar dislodged his leg-stump.
Charl Langeveldt lent support as Parnell tried to keep the strike and score the required runs. South Africa needed four runs off the final delivery, which was reduced to three when Kumar bowled a wide.
Parnell then cut the final ball to point and scampered for a second run, but was beaten by Shantakumarn Sreesanth's throw to wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Parnell's knock contained a six and four boundaries, while Steyn struck three huge sixes and one boundary from 19 balls.
Openers Loots Bosman (29) and Herschelle Gibbs (27) gave South Africa a sound start. A.B. de Villiers (25) then helped Kallis take South Africa past the 100-mark for the loss of just two wickets, but a middle-order slump gave India the edge.
Kallis hit a six and six boundaries from 97 balls, but did not get much support from other batsmen and was the eighth man out, bowled by paceman Sreesanth (2-74).
Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja was the pick of India's attack, dismissing opener Gibbs and de Villiers to return figures of 2-29. Kumar took 2-46.
Suresh Raina earlier top-scored with 58 to revive India after a middle-order slump.
Raina smashed six boundaries and a six in 63 balls, and was the only player to score a half-century despite every recognized batsman other than Sachin Tendulkar reaching double figures.
Virender Sehwag hit 46 and Dinesh Karthik 44 to be the next highest scorers, while Virat Kohli hit 31 and put on 66 with Raina.
Kallis was the most successful bowler with 3-29 from seven overs. Kallis is leading South Africa after Graeme Smith returned home earlier this week after because of a finger injury.
India lost Tendulkar for 4 and the total on 10 when he was sent back by Sehwag only to be left stranded as Parnell collected the throw from Gibbs and broke the stumps.
Sehwag and Karthik added 79 for the second wicket before Sehwag was also run out when Karthik's shot was deflected on to the stumps after touching bowler Langeveldt's fingers. Sehwag collected six boundaries and two sixes in 37 balls.
Karthik hit a six and five boundaries from 56 deliveries before hitting an errant pull shot off Langeveldt to Alviro Petersen at mid-on.
India was tottering at 4-138 when Dhoni fell for 26, lobbing a short delivery from Kallis to Albie Morkel at mid-off.
The stand between Raina and Kohli ended when the latter was caught by Gibbs off Albie Morkel.
Yusuf Pathan, making his return to the injury-hit India team, was caught for 18 by Kallis at extra-cover off a full toss from Parnell
Kallis then removed Raina and Jadeja for 22 in successive overs, inducing edges to wicketkeeper Mark Boucher.
