India defeat South Africa by 243 runs at Eden Gardens; Diwali comes early as fireworks light up sky

India (326/5) defeat South Africa (83 all out in 27.1 overs) by 243 runs in an ODI World Cup match.

Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja shone as India thrashed South Africa by 243 runs in a top-of-the-table clash at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Sunday. Virat Kohli scored a world record-equalling century (101 not out) on his 35th birthday as India posted a big total of 326 for 5 on the tricky wicket in Kolkata after opting to bat first. Rohit Sharma also played a blistering 40-run knock off only 24 balls, contributing to India's total. In reply, Ravindra Jadeja returned a five-wicket haul (5 for 33) as India bundled out the Proteas for 83.

Kuldeep Yadav has cleaned up Lungi Ngidi and is the nail in South Africa's coffin. India have won this game by a massive margin of 243 runs. This is sheer dominance from the Rohit Sharma-led side.
