FOUR! Ottniel Baartman to Shivam Dube. Full toss, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. That brings us to the end of the first innings, and India have put up a commanding total on the board. The platform was laid beautifully by the openers, who provided a solid and steady start, ensuring there were no early setbacks. The innings was then expertly anchored by Tilak Verma, whose composure through the middle overs kept the momentum firmly in India's favour. But the standout performance belongs to Hardik Pandya, who turned the game on its head with a breathtaking, destructive knock. His power-hitting at the death completely dismantled the South African bowling attack and propelled India into a dominant position. To their credit, the Proteas bowlers kept probing and showed intent, but conditions and execution didn't quite swing their way. The challenge ahead is steep, and South Africa's batters will need clarity of thought, positive intent, and smart shot selection if they are to stay in the hunt.

Abhishek Sharma to Corbin Bosch. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the back foot driving, mis-timed to long off for 1 run, fielded by Pandya. That's it, India have secured the series with style. South Africa's innings showed flashes of intent, led by a classy Quinton de Kock 65, but regular wickets stalled the chase at crucial moments. Varun Chakaravarthy was the game-changer, ripping through the middle order with a four-wicket haul, while Jasprit Bumrah's incisive spell ensured there was no late surge. Despite a few cameos down the order, the Proteas never fully recovered from the twin blows in the middle overs, allowing India to close out a comprehensive and well-controlled victory.
