Indian spinners routed the South African batting line up, as the Proteas were bowled out for 118 runs.

Indian spinners Chahal and Kuldeep, delivered an exceptional bowling by taking 5/22 and 3/20 respectively. Chahal bagged his first five-wicket haul in ODIs.

The Centurion wickect provided the spinners a slow turner and they've taken full advantage. The spinners bagged eight wickets for 42 runs in just 14 overs.
 
Earlier, South Africa suffered a huge blow after skipper Faf du Plessis got ruled out of the remainder of the ongoing ODI series against India with a fractured finger.

Already down with the absence of veteran AB de Villiers for the first three ODIs, the Proteas missed the services of the skipper, who struck a brilliant ton in the opener of the six-match series, albeit in a losing cause.
