IND vs SA 1st Test Day 5 Highlights: India Beat South Africa By 113 Runs, Take 1-0 Lead In Three-Match Series

That's it from South Africa vs India first Test blog. Do join us in the second Test that will start from January 3 in Johannesburg.

"Obviously not a nice thing knowing we lost a Test here. Did a few things wrong. Lot of positives coming out that we can use in the next two. Always the nature here. Always going to be tough because the wicket's playing slower (first morning). Indian openers did the fundamentals right. We didn't quite execute the lengths well. After some good chats our bowlers executed the lengths and restricted India to what we thought was a par score. New ball is something you have to get through playing here. Can't emphasise enough on the hard work our bowlers put in to get 20 wickets. Our batters let us down. I'd say the batting was the difference between the two sides. We'll have a little sit-down with myself and the management to strategise. Didn't do a lot of wrong things. Not all doom and gloom for us. We strive under the pressure which is a positive for us," said South Africa captain Dean Elgar at post-match presentation as quoted by Cricbuzz.

India have won four Test matches this year outside Asia. This is only the second time to have happened in a calendar year. The previous instance was back in 2018 and, notably, Virat Kohli was the skipper of the Indian side then too.

Another wicket!! Ravichandran Ashwin has taken his first wicket of the ongoing Test match as he has removed Kagiso Rabada. Easy catch for Shami in the end and the visitors are just one wicket away from their fourth win in South Africa.

Shami to Jansen, OUT!! Caught by Pant!! Finally Shami wins the small battle with a brilliant delivery to get the all-rounder out. India are just 2 wickets away from a win as South Africa have lost their eight wicket.
