Put
in
to
bat
first,
South
Africa
were
all
out
for
287
after
Quinton
de
Kock’s
attacking
hundred
and
Rassie
van
der
Dussen’s
fluent
half-century.
In
reply,
India
were
all
out
for
283
in
49.2
overs
as
set
batsmen
they
kept
losing
their
wickets
in
clusters
in
a
chase
that
should
have
been
completed
smoothly.
Having
taken
two
wickets
with
the
ball,
Chahar
blazed
away
with
the
bat
and
hit
five
fours
and
two
sixes,
but
his
effort
was
not
enough
in
the
end.
Senior
pros
Shikhar
Dhawan
and
Virat
Kohli
hit
half-centuries
and
neither
did
they
fail
to
convert
the
start
into
a
big
knock
nor
could
they
string
long
partnerships
with
the
relatively
younger
middle-order
to
keep
the
side
in
the
hunt.
All
in
all,
the
limited-overs
series
turned
out
to
be
one
of
the
most
disappointing
outings
for
India
in
recent
years,
especially
after
having
hammered
the
Proteas
5-1
in
their
backyard
in
2018.
With
this
loss,
Team
India
continues
to
search
for
its
first
win
in
the
year
2022.
Earlier,
India
rallied
to
bowl
out
South
Africa
under
300
after
de
Kock
and
van
der
Dussen’s
blazing
knocks.
De
Kock
struck
124
off
130
balls
and
added
144
runs
for
the
fourth
wicket
with
van
der
Dussen
before
India
put
the
brakes
on
the
home
team’s
scoring
by
sending
back
both
the
batters
in
quick
succession.
After
that,
David
Miller
contributed
a
38-ball
39
before
the
innings
ended
with
a
ball
to
spare.
Post
Match
Presentation
Highlights
of
the
3rd
ODI:
KL
Rahul,
losing
captain:
Deepak
(Chahar)
gave
us
a
real
chance
of
winning
the
game.
Quite
an
exciting
game,
just
disappointed
we
ended
up
on
the
losing
side.
We
gave
ourselves
a
real
chance,
something
we
can
learn
from
and
get
better.
Quite
obvious
where
we’ve
gone
wrong.
No
shying
away
from
it.
At
times
our
shot
selection
has
been
poor.
Even
with
the
ball,
we
haven’t
been
hitting
the
right
areas
consistently.
Have
played
well
in
patches
but
haven’t
built
pressure
over
a
long
period.
Can’t
fault
the
boys
for
their
passion
and
effort.
In
terms
of
skill
and
understanding
the
situation
–
sometimes
we’ve
gone
wrong.
But
it
happens
–
we’ve
got
some
new
guys
in
the
team.
In
the
one-day
series
at
times
we’ve
kept
doing
the
same
mistakes.
It’s
early
in
our
journey
to
the
World
Cup.
We
can
go
back,
have
some
hard
conversations.
Have
had
a
great
time
in
SA.
Have
been
looked
after
really
well.
We’ve
shown
a
lot
of
fights.
Temba
Bavuma,
winning
captain:
Got
a
bit
crazy
at
the
end.
Probably
the
complacency
got
to
us.
The
guys
tried
a
couple
of
things
that
didn’t
come
off.
Very
satisfying,
mission
accomplished
for
us.
Many
people
didn’t
give
us
much
of
a
chance.
Hope
through
our
performances,
we’ve
been
able
to
get
a
couple
of
supporters.
Making
good
strides
as
a
team.
Challenge
is
to
get
better
and
better.
Quinton’s
been
great.
Rassie
as
well
with
the
bat.
He’s
been
tremendous.
His
game
starting
to
move
to
the
next
level.
Bowling’s
been
decent.
This
was
a
big
challenge,
a
big
obstacle
in
our
journey.
To
come
out
the
way
we
did
–
winning
Tests,
winning
ODIs
convincingly
will
do
a
world
of
good.
What
pleased
me
most
–
if
you
look
at
the
Test
series,
feel
like
it’s
the
hardest
series
I’ve
been
part
of.
Indian
bowlers
(were)
asking
questions
regularly.
Even
in
the
field
the
intensity.
Physically
we’ve
been
challenged
–
it’s
been
very
hot
the
last
couple
of
weeks.
These
conditions
weren’t
exactly
South
African
like
–
more
like
the
subcontinent.
Always
nice
to
contribute
to
the
team.
Enjoying
my
batting
at
the
moment.
Things
are
okay
at
the
moment.
Awards:
Quinton
de
Kock,
Player
of
the
Match
and
Player
of
the
Series:
Wasn’t
flat
at
all
(the
pitch).
Was
a
wicket
where
you’re
never
quite
in.
Came
back,
had
a
week
of
training
in
Paarl.
First
game
–
just
trying
to
find
some
rhythm.
Was
still
trying
to
find
my
feet
and
then
in
the
second
ODI
found
my
rhythm.
Get
home
now
for
some
daddy
duties.
