The ongoing match of India vs South Africa T20I three days test series came to an end with a draw of 1-1 on the concluding day at Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. Earlier, team India put its best foot forward in their second match of the series, taking lead at Mohali Stadium, bringing the score to 1-0.
In the final match of the test series, Indian Captain Virat Kohli chose the strategy to bat first after winning the toss. The underperformance of batsmen like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli brought down the game of Indian team. With the South African fielders and spinners putting out the best show, the tactic backfired. Restricting the game of the Men in Blue by knocking them out at 134 and winning by nine wickets, South Africa ended the match with 1-1 reading.
