England vs South Africa, first ODI live score update: Sam Curran eliminated Quinton de Kock on a personal score of then 19 to help England get off to a good start against South Africa in the first ODI of a three-match series at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street on Tuesday. Earlier, South Africa captain Keshav Maharaj chose to face England in the match. While the match at Durham opened the series between the two competing sides, it also saw Ben Stokes bid in ODI format. Stokes, who appeared last in this format with his 105th game, announced his decision to retire from ODIs shortly after this match. England look set to make the perfect farewell in the ODIs to the all-star with a win over the visitors, while South Africa must be equally eager to take an early lead in a three-match series.
