2nd Test: Harmer's 6-37 Helps SA Crush India By 408-run To Seal Series Whitewash
Barsapara Cricket Stadium: Off-spinner Simon Harmer picked an exceptional 6-37 as South Africa completed a commanding 408-run victory over India at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium to secure an emphatic 2-0 series sweep on Wednesday.
Chasing 549, India were bundled out for 140 on day five’s play, and veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja top-scored with 54. South Africa also handed the hosts their heaviest defeat in Tests by runs. South Africa, the reigning World Test Championship winner, have got their first Test series win in India since 2000.
South Africa also set a new record for their biggest winning margin over India in Tests. Right from the time South Africa won the toss, everything went their way, with India now left to ponder over the questions as their fortress-like reputation when playing Tests at home suffers another big blow after their 3-0 loss to New Zealand last year.
