AB de Villiers for his breezy unbeaten century has been named as the Man of the Match. And the Man of the Series is the only double centurion in the history of ODI Cricket and that is the legend Sachin Tendulkar.

Over 37.2: Out LBW! R van der Merwe to Sreesanth, quicker and flatter in the air, doesn't get forward at all in a flick and misses it having played all around the
ball, gets hit in line of off and middle and the Umpire after a long thought
raises his finger up.

Over 43.3: Stumped Out! R van der Merwe to A Mithun, full toss, misses out on that easy ball outside off and at the same time loses his balance with his backfoot just out of the crease. Boucher has a very easy stumping and there was no need of the third Umpire as well!

Over 44.3: He is Caught! L Tsotsobe to R Jadeja, bangs it short, edges his cut shot to Boucher and that's the end of the night at Ahmedabad! South Africa win by 90 runs and India win the 3-ODI Series 2-1.
So that brings us to an end to this South Africa's Tour of India. South Africa have won the last ODI having put up a strong batting performance on what was yet another batsman-oriented pitch. They piled up 365 courtesy of Kallis and AB de Villiers and also the strong opening stand between Amla and Bosman. The Indian bowling was a 'help yourself attack' with nione of the bowlers even beating the bat all afternoon!
Got to say that it wasn't a bad show from the young Indian batting line-up. To reduce the margin of defeat to 90 runs and come up with 275 was a decent effort. Lots of positives were there and it was just that the young guns couldn't last long enough!
AB de Villiers for his breezy unbeaten century has been named as the Man of the Match. And the Man of the Series is the only double centurion in the history of ODI Cricket and that is the legend Sachin Tendulkar.
