Finally South Africa won the match at last,India did had a very good chance to win the match but they took the wicket off a no ball and then South Africa did not give any free offers after that and went on to win the match.India started really well but they end up short in the end as they were not able to score more runs in the end.

Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan are the only consistent batsman for India in this series. Rohit Sharma and middle order batsman are failed in the entire series so far. In the last match also, India was in very good position till the 40th over but middle order couldn't score the runs in the last 10 overs and they only managed to set the target of 289 runs. Target was further reduced to 202 runs which was a easy chase for SA. Indian spinners failed to pick the wickets on a regular intervals and made some blunders, its a crime to bowl a no ball by the spinners which costed them a match.

India was favorite in this match and i lost my bet on them. Luckily i had already placed the cross bet on SA which reduced my loss to some extend, as i was aware with South Africa's dream run in the pink jersey. This series is still alive, lets see what happens in the next two games. India will try to win the next match and to bag the series; on other hand SA will try hard to win the next match and to save the series.

Weather played big role in match, looking at the weather prediction we should have fielded first after winning toss considering we had 2 wrist spinner. Secondly, we will have to look at batting position of 4 5 and 6 to give ourselves chance in winning world cup next year (S Gill at 4 won't be a bad idea as we still got time to groom him).

Agreed with you, India should make sure to build a balanced team before world cup.
