 "India vs South Africa: Twitterati applaud Rilee Rossouw as Proteas collect consolation win at Indore")
After getting thoroughly outplayed in the series opener in Thiruvananthapuram and falling short despite a spirited fightback in Guwahati, South Africa finally prevailed over India as they collected a consolation win in the third T20I in Indore on Tuesday. Sent in to bat, South Africa got off to yet another shaky start as skipper Temba Bavuma’s horror run continued. Fellow opener Quinton de Kock, however, brought the Proteas back on their feet in no time with his attacking strokeplay, scoring a second consecutive half-century and becoming only the second South African player to score 2,000 T20I runs in the process.

India, in reply, lost wickets from the word go with skipper Rohit Sharma departing for a duck and the rest of the batters barely being able to put up a meaningful resistance. Had it not been for Dinesh Karthik’s fiery knock of 46 as well as cameos from Deepak Chahar (31) and Rishabh Pant (20), the Proteas could have ended the contest a lot more quickly and would’ve had more time to chill in their hotel rooms later that evening. As our coverage of the third and final T20I comes to a close, we take a look at how Cricket Twitter reacted to the events of the game at Indore’s Holkar Stadium:
A MOMENT TO SAVOUR 💯
