  • On Friday, India beat South Africa by 30 runs at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad to clinch the five-match series 3-1.
  • South Africa won the toss and chose to bowl, inviting India men's T20I team to bat first, where they capitalised on a flat wicket to post 231/5 with Tilak Varma scoring 73.
  • Varun Chakaravarthy turned the game with four wickets despite conceding over 50 runs, and Jasprit Bumrah struck late to break the chase in the 11th over.
  • The result adds to India men’s T20I team’s white-ball run, continuing victories and underscoring their 20 wins from 34 T20Is against South Africa men’s T20I team.
  • Hardik Pandya raced to a 16-ball half-century, the second-fastest by an Indian after Yuvraj Singh, with massive sixes that struck a cameraman and thrilled the Ahmedabad crowd.
