Quinton de Kock made an ideal start to his full-time captaincy of South Africa's one-day international team on Tuesday when he hit a century as his side beat England by seven wickets in the first ODI at Newlands.
De Kock made 107 and Temba Bavuma hit 98 as South Africa chased down an England total of 258 for eight with 14 balls to spare.
De Kock and Bavuma shared a second wicket partnership of 173 off 170 balls, dominating an England team which included only five of the side that won the World Cup last year.
De Kock made his 107 off 113 balls with 11 fours and a six, while Bavuma faced 103 deliveries, hitting five fours and two sixes.
"It was a good night. It feels good to get back to winning ways," said De Kock.
"We had one or two chats about how we want to take this ODI team forward.

"We were way off the mark," admitted England captain Eoin Morgan.
"South Africa completely outplayed us in every department."
"It was a matter of finding a way to get momentum and we understood that running hard between the wickets was the way to go about it."
