Quinton de Kock’s sublime 124 (off 130b; 12x4, 2x6) laid the platform for South Africa’s eventual total of 287, which proved to be four runs more than what India could manage. The win meant an emphatic 3-0 clean sweep for the hosts. Just like the first two ODIs, Indian spinners were ineffective — neither picked wickets nor could keep a check on the run flow.
