After some great work from the bowlers, yet again, restricting SA to a sub-par score of 130 in the second innings, Indian batsman crumbled under pressure once again scoring just 5 more runs than their opponents. The Twitterati were in no mood to let the collapse slide and came out in numbers.

Brief scores : South Africa 286 (AB de Villiers 65, Faf du Plessis 62; Bhuvneshwar Kumar 4-87) & 130 (AB de Villiers 35, Aiden Markram 34; Mohammad Shami 3/28, Jasprit Bumrah 3/39) beat India 209 (Hardik Pandya 93; Kagiso Rabada 3-34, Vernon Philander 3-33) & 135 (R Ashwin 37, Virat Kohli 28; Vernon Philander 6/42, Morne Morkel 2/39) by 72 runs.

Here are the best tweets from the day's action :

Take a bow, South Africa

No Dale Steyn, rain affected play, a meagre lead of 200, and yet SA have managed to bring India to its knees. Now that’s a world class team! #INDvSA #SAvsIND

And we thought Team India learned something

#IndvsSA #SAvsInd Rip those who thought India had a chance of beating SA even after watching dharamshala ODI

If Dale Steyn had bowled perhaps the Indian team would've been in hotel by now. #SAvsIND #INDvSA
