India vs SA Highlights: South Africa Beat India By 135 Runs, Win Series
South Africa win the second Test by 135 runs.
� AFP
Faf du Plessis-led South Africa beat India by 135 runs in the second Test to seal
the three-match Test series 2-0 at Centurion on Wednesday. South African bowlers
yet again ran through the Indian batting order as debutant Lungi Ngidi finished
with the figures of six for 39. Earlier, India resumed their innings on 35 for
three with Cheteshwar Pujara and Parthiv Patel on strike. But, the Indian batsmen
couldn't face the heat of African bowlers as the visitors fell like nine pins.
South African bowlers were right on the mark and kept testing the Indian batters.
Rohit (47)and Shami (28) stitched together a 53-run partnership before Rohit was
dismissed by Rabada. Chasing 287 for a win, India were bundled out for 151 in the
second innings. (Scorecard)

So, that is it from this game! Virat Kohli's 9 successive Test series wins as a
captain comes to an end. Their batting is once again under scrutiny. Was not
picking Ajinkya Rahane the right move? Or was dropping Bhuvneshwar Kumar something
they should not have done? Hindsight is a wonderful thing. For South Africa, things
just keep getting better and every player is contributing in some way or the other.
They would now look to inflict a whitewash by winning the third Test in Durban. It
will be played on 24th January at 1000 local (0800 GMT). Till then, take care and
goodbye!

!
Man of the Match, Lungi Ngidi, says he is very happy with the award. Further adds
he can't believe it. Admits he has been in good form in franchise cricket and feels
lucky to have got to debut on his home ground. Opines he stuck to the basics and
got some movement off the deck which helped him. Ends by saying the pitch was on
the slower side but adapting to conditions was very important.

!
South African skipper, Faf du Plessis, says it is a very good feeling to have won
the series. Admits it took a lot of hard work but feels they were on top for the
majority of the Test match. Mentions they were disappointed after day one due to
the last 45 minutes as they felt they gave India a sniff but credits his teammates
as they showed great character to bounce back on the remaining days. Further adds
anything above 250 would have been challenging. Appreciates Ngidi's performance and
also says he is a very nice human being. Ends by saying Morkel's catch was better
than de Villiers'.

!
Indian skipper, Virat Kohli, thinks the wicket was quite flat. He felt their best
chance was to put some runs on the board. Admits India should have capitalized as
they were in a position to take the lead. Credits the bowlers who have done well in
this game as well. States he gives his 100 percent on the field. Mentions his
innings at the moment means nothing as they have lost the series. Further adds
personal milestones is not something he cares about as team performances matter
more. Ends by saying they tried their best but South Africa were the better team.

!
With a lead of 28 on a wicket which was getting even more difficult to bat,
anything above 250 would have been difficult for India to chase. The Indian bowlers
did strike early but the pair of AB de Villiers and Elgar first and then Faf du
Plessis towards the end ensured they get up to a total which will prove too much of
a task for the Indians. Shami's four wickets proved to be worthless in the end.
Three Indian wickets towards the end of day 4, including the big one of Kohli,
meant that only formalities had to be completed on the last day. Stay tuned for the
presentation in a while.

!
India went into the second game needing a win or a draw to stay alive in the
series. Losing the toss did not help their cause as South Africa elected to bat.
They put up a decent total with Aiden Markram being their top scorer with 94.
Though they looked set at one stage to post a big first innings score with Amla
notching a half ton, they were pegged back by some brilliance from Pandya who
inflicted his run out. The momentum from there changed and Ashwin made use of the
opportunity to pick up a 4-fer. However, in reply, India fell 28 short of the total
due to Morkel's four-wicket haul. At one stage they looked like conceding a big
lead but courtesy a brilliant 153 by their skipper, the margin reduced.

!
It took South Africa only a session to take the seven wickets they had to today.
Parthiv and Pujara did show good intent to start off the day but another moment of
madness from Pujara, as he gifted his wicket to the South Africans by being run
out, made their task even easier. The rest also threw their wickets away by playing
poor shots, needless ones you can say. Rohit Sharma did try to put up a fight but
it was always an uphill task. For South Africa, Ngidi was the star as he picked up
a 6-fer on his debut. He was well supported by Rabada, as the pair took 9 of the 10
wickets to fall.

!
What a dream debut for the young man, Lungi Ngidi! Another one is added to the list
of the already impressive pace bowlers of South Africa. He leads the Proteas off
the field and is congratulated by the Indians and also from his team members. The
debutant, has single-handedly run through the strong batting line-up of the
Indians, to help South Africa clinch the series with a match to spare.

LUNGI NGIDI TO JASPRIT BUMRAH

OUT! That is it! Six-fer for Ngidi. What a debut for the young man! He has made a
mark for himself against a top-class batting line-up. He bowls it full on off,
Bumrah tries to drive but instead he lobs it towards covers. Philander there runs
in and takes another good catch inches above the ground. So that is four good
catches in this innings. All smiles in the South African camp, Ngidi is given a
stump for his heroics and India are bowled out for 151! SOUTH AFRICA WIN BY 135
RUNS!
