Twitter erupts as India thrash South Africa in the 3rd ODI
In the end, South Africa were no match for India, as the spin duo of Chahal and Yadav were too good for the Proteas batsmen.
The pair picked up four wickets each, as India bundled out South Africa for 179. Virat Kohli’s smile told the entire story, as India comprehensively beat their hosts to take an unassailable 3-0 lead in the series.
Earlier in the day, Virat Kohli scored a wonderful 160, as the Indian skipper was in imperious form. Kohli smashed the bowlers to all parts of the ground, as he took India past 300.
Eventually it was far too much for South Africa, as India won by 124 runs.
Here are the best Twitter reactions,
What joy to watch @imkuldeep18 and @yuzi_chahal bowl! Just shows even in age of big bats, spin can still be king. To use a word from the Mumbai maidan, South African batsman are doing a 'jhanba tukaram' ! #IndVsSA

Chahal's 11 wickets have come at an average of 10.27. Kuldeep's 10 have come at an average 7.70. These are crazy numbers. #SAvInd

In trying to decipher the wrist spin of Yadav and Chahal, SA batsmen seem as clued in as little Bo-Peep trying to find her sheep
