Quinton de Kock may have quit Test cricket in a huff, and his bat-ting in the first ODI seemed to have been affected by the sudden exit, but all that changed in the second ODI. An attacking 66-ball 78 brought de Kock back on track. The 29-year-old continued his form in the final one-dayer in Cape Town on Sunday, smashing his sixth century against India and 17th overall.
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 a 3-0 clean sweep of KL Rahul and Co.
At one stage, things looked grim for India but Deepak Chahar (54 off 34b; 5x4, 2x6) and Jasprit Bumrah almost pulled it off with an exhilarating 55-run partnership. Chahar brought India back to life from an almost dead situation with some daredevil strokeplay, after the team was staring at defeat at 223/7. Chahar, for the second time in his short international career, showed his genuine batting ability and almost got India home. But a miscue off Lungi Ngidi in the 48th over ended his stay at the crease and India’s chase came unstuck in the ensuing overs.
