This was Team India's record 11th consecutive series win.
The star with the bat proved to be captain Virat Kohli with his career-best 254* and Mayank Agarwal with 108, his second century in Tests. Ajinkya Rahane, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Ravindra Jadeja scored half-centuries and aided India in putting up 601/5d.
Dean Elgar made 48, while Bavuma and Philander contributed well, but it didn’t prove to be enough. Umesh Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja picked three wickets each to rout the opposition for 189 and won the match by an innings and 137 runs.
Apart from the bowling and batting, the Indian team also impressed with their catching, with Wriddhiman Saha being the best behind the stumps and Rohit Sharma, Kohli and Rahane pouching catches safely in slips. Virat Kohli was named the Man of the Match for his 254.
The Cricket fraternity lauded the Indian team, as this was their record 11 consecutive series win at home and we have the best tweets.
