India won historic series win vs South Africa

PORT ELIZABETH, Feb 14: Team India registered their maiden ODI series win on South African soil, taking an unbeatable 4-1 lead after dominating the hosts by 73 runs in the fifth One-Day International (ODI) at the St.George's Park here on Tuesday.

No Indian men's side since its first tour in South Africa back in 1992, has ever won a series across any format.


The team under Kohli achieved which neither among Mohammed Azharuddin, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid or Mahendra Singh Dhioni could ever accomplish -- win a full-fledged series.

"Very pleased, another complete performance from us. Only one team had the pressure of losing this series and we knew that. It's history and the guys have worked hard for it. Every since the third Test in Johannesburg it's been a good time for us. It's been a collective effort to create history," Kohli said.
