First things first: India have sealed yet-another bilateral series, and this this is India's first T20I series win against South Africa in India, ever! It's a big deal. It's not often that South Africa come into a series with a lot of expectations. But they did this time around. They were on a winning roll, they seemed to have had most boxes checked, they even came over early to prepare. But they've been totally and comprehensively rolled over. A cheap bundling out in Trivandrum, and now quite a pasting in Guwahati. This second innings was almost a formality. Bavuma looked completely at sea, Rossouw fell early, Quinton endured a painful stay, where he batted through the innings, but just couldn't get going. David Miller just kept swinging, kept connecting them off the middle, but alas, it was all too alone, and all too little against the mountain that India amassed. Still, although this 16-run margin suggests this one was quite close, in reality, it wasn't. The Proteas were never in it. They were merely playing catch up.
