New Delhi [India], Jan 27: Third and final test match was exciting for world cricket and that's why this win was important for team India also because they are the No. 1 side in the world and played like that on the fourth day. So given tough competition from the No. 2 side South Africa in their own conditions team India showed character..

The Wanderers began to resonate to a different tune then. Once Ishant and Bumrah had blasted out an opening, Mohammed Shami reverse swung his way to a five-fer. In exactly 73 minutes since they'd been 144 for 3, South Africa crashed and burned to 177 all-out, with a bruised Elgar cutting a forlorn figure as teams shook each other's hands. Huge roar from the Indian players as they see the umpire's finger going up for the final blow for the host Proteas. Short of a length ball that seamed away just a touch as Ngidi looked to poke at it. It flew through to Karthik who was immediately excited. Egged his skipper to go for the review and UltraEdge confirmed it with a spike. That's the end to the game and India win by 63 runs over Proteas. A superb end to what has been a keenly contested Test series. South Africa have won it 2-1 and the scoreline does reflect the combat that it was between the two side.
