Right then, KL Rahul goes up to the stand and picks up the series-winning trophy and then joins his teammates who rejoice and pose for a team photo. That marks the end of the white-ball leg of India's tour to South Africa and now the action shifts to hardcore, five-day cricket as the two-match Test series is up next. The first Test will be the 'Boxing Day Test' and will be played at SuperSport Park in Centurion. That game will begin on Tuesday, 26 December at 1.30 pm IST (8 am GMT) but you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up. Till then, take care and goodbye!
KL Rahul, the captain of India says that he is delighted to lead this team of young guns and it is nice to get back on the field after a disappointing World Cup final. He mentions that he always tells everyone to enjoy the game and give it the best shot and let the young players calm their nerves and get used to the international pressure. Adds that it was a fighting series for everyone. He appreciates Sanju Samson for his brilliant performance and is happy that he took this opportunity with both hands. He ends by saying that he will enjoy the night and then go back to practicing for the test series with the test team.
Arshdeep Singh is the Player of the Series for picking up 10 wickets in 3 matches including a stellar five-wicket haul in the first game. He says that there was always something in the wicket throughout the day for the bowlers as it was getting a good grip. Says that their plan was to keep it simple and bowl wicket to wicket and try to get more LBWs, says that they stuck to their plans and executed well which generated positive results for them. Adds that the Indian T20 League has been really a good platform for youngsters like him to brush up their skills as playing with experienced players from different geographies really helps them to improve and learn. Concludes by saying that he loves the chances he is getting and promises to give his 100 percent whenever he gets an opportunity.
Sanju Samson is the Player of the Match for his maiden ODI ton. He says that he is happy to score big in an international match and credits his hard work for this result. He mentions that the ODI format gives you some extra time to analyze the wicket and the opposition's plans. He appreciates Tilak Varma for stepping up at a young age and he feels that he will be a big match player. He also adds that Indian cricket is of a high quality and even the juniors know what is expected of them and they step up to it.
Aiden Markram, the skipper of South Africa is down for a chat. Markram says that it's always nice to be in the series decider with such an active crowd to support them. Says that they were not up to mark. Adds that it was a great day to play cricket but says that it unfortunately did not go well for them. He says that they were good in patches but couldn't build onto the momentum. Says that they will reflect on it and come back stronger. Further adds that the surface didn't change throughout the game and says that 290 was achievable. Concludes that it will be great to be back in the whites and is hopeful for some stronger performance.
The Presentation ceremony...
Earlier in the game, Aiden Markram once again won the toss and put the visitors into bat first. The first innings was filled with ebbs and flows as the South African pacers bowled well after that early burst from debutant Rajat Patidar and picked up a couple of quick wickets. Sanju Samson who was under pressure to perform, did well to absorb the pressure and stitched a couple of partnerships first with Tilak Varma and then with Rinku Singh and Samson upped the ante at the right time. Samson notched up a maiden ton and Rinku Singh peppered the opposition bowlers in the final 10 overs as well to take India close to the 300-run mark. With the ball, Nandre Burger impressed yet again but Beuran Hendricks was the standout with his three wickets and the way he bowled. Coming to the chase, it was neck and neck for the first 30 overs or so after which South Africa self-destructed a bit and that coupled with some tidy bowling, India were able to get the win.
Riding high on confidence from the last game, the opening pair of Reeza Hendricks and Tony de Zorzi started positively with the latter seemingly on a roll. As it has been throughout the series, Hendricks simply didn't look in control and soon fell with an underperforming Rassie van der Dussen soon following suite. De Zorzi and skipper Aiden Markram added on a good partnership but the skipper played a horrible shot to get out and that completely turned the game on its head. De Zorzi couldn't get back-to-back tons and got out on a well-made 81 but the likes of Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller faltered yet again under pressure. There were a few shots played by the lower-order batters but the hosts finished a distant second best.
The stage was set for the Indian bowlers to come out after the halftime break and build on the good foundation laid by their batters. However, it was a sloppy start and they conceded too many boundaries. It was only after Arshdeep Singh changed ends and got rid of Reeza Hendricks that the Indian bowlers showed some level of control. In the next phase though, the spin duo of Axar Patel and Washington Sundar ruled the roost and bogged down the opposition batters. India picked up a couple of wickets but they were still behind. Aiden Markram played an uncharacteristic shot and that opened the door for the bowlers to pile on the pressure. Arshdeep was simply sensational as he ripped through the lower order finishing with a four-fer and Sundar too ended with a couple of solid wickets and so did Avesh Khan.
India have done it, they have got the better of South Africa at their home turf and sealed a memorable series win and its a bit of a sweet revenge as well as they lost 3-0 the last time they played an ODI series in South Africa. This is also just the second loss at Boland Park for the Proteas in 10 outings, the other one coming way back in 2013 against the Kiwis.

Avesh Khan To Beuran Hendricks OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! And India take the series! India pulls off a historic win at this venue as Avesh Khan seals the deal. He bowls it on length and around middle. Beuran Hendricks wanted to scoop it over the keeper and he got into the position very early on. However, he didn't get enough bat on it and ended up lobbing it up to short third. Sanju Samson takes a very easy catch and South Africa are bowled out for 218 at a venue they were expected to be strong at and India win by 78 runs.

OUT! LBW! Arshdeep Singh gets his fourth! He bowls an inswinging full toss on the pads. Lizaad Williams is rapped in front of the stumps as he tries to work it leg side. The umpire has given it out but South Africa has reviewed it. The big screen shows a clear gap between the bat and ball and the Ball Tracing confirms that the wickets are hitting. The decision his upheld and it was a desperate review for South Africa. Just one more wicket is needed for India to clinch a historic win. Arshdeep Singh is on a hat-trick also as he had taken a wicket off the last ball in his previous over.

Excellent review! Axar Patel slides this one in from a higher and wider trajectory, angling it into the off stump. Keshav Maharaj looks to go on the back foot and cut but the ball flicks the flap of the front pad and then goes off the bat towards cover. There is a huge appeal and it is given! Maharaj does review it. It's clearly pad first and Ball Tracking shows the impact as outside the line of off stump and Maharaj survives. The onfield decision is reversed.

Washington Sundar To Wiaan Mulder OUT!
OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Another brilliant review from KL Rahul behind the stumps. Washington Sundar drops it on a tad fuller length and outside off stump channel, getting it to drift a bit. Wiaan Mulder looks to play it with a straight bat but the ball just seems to have gone past the outside edge. KL Rahul takes the catch and appeals but it is turned down. KL Rahul looks confident on that one and goes upstairs after a brief discussion with Washington Sundar. The stumping is checked first but that's fine and UltraEdge shows a slight murmur as the ball is next to the bat and Mulder has to depart.

Drinks break! Time for a breather and India have come roaring back into the contest, picking up three wickets in the space of just a few overs. The pacers seem to be hitting their stride and Arshdeep Singh is bowling really well. South Africa are really up against it now and everything rests on the shoulders of David Miller. With that said, Wiaan Mulder walks out to bat next.

Avesh Khan To Heinrich Klaasen OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Avesh Khan has the last laugh and what a comeback. Avesh Khan bowls this one slower and full around off. Heinrich Klaasen is taken aback by the pace as the ball sticks in the surface and he brings the bat down playing with a straight face. The ball chips up in the air. Sai Sudharsan comes in running from mid off and dives forward at full length. He manages to hold on to the ball and keep his fingers underneath. He takes an athletic catch to dismiss a very dangerous batter. India will be delighted to see Heinrich Klaasen walking back to the pavilion at a crucial stage in the match.
Is that taken? Sai Sudharsan seems to have pulled off a stunning catch here but Heinrich Klaasen isn't going anywhere. The umpires come together for a chat and the third umpire is called in. The replays roll in and we can clearly see that the fingers are under the ball. OUT comes up on the big screen!

Arshdeep Singh To Tony de Zorzi OUT!
OUT! LBW! Excellent review and Arshdeep Singh strikes yet again at the right time for his side. Aims a yorker in front of the sticks which moves into the batter, Tony de Zorzi is clueless to negotiate and plays all around it and gets a thud on the pads. There is a huge appeal which the umpire turns down but KL Rahul right away goes upstairs. The UltraEdge shows no bat involved and the ball tracking shows three reds. A huge wicket for India as the centurion from the last game departs on 81 this time.

Bowls it full and on leg. Aiden Markram drives it down to long on for one run to begin the over.
Drinks break! It was a fine start by the South African openers as they were going at around 8 runs per over but once Reeza Hendricks fell, the innings slowed down. They were still better than run-a-ball after 10 overs but the Indian spinners have since been prolific in slowing things up. Tony de Zorzi is well set and has skipper Aiden Markram with him. The middle phase will be crucial for both sides. Let's find out how it pans out.
