and that's the match for India! They win the series 3-1. Tossed up ball outside the off stump, Klaas comes down the track and is beaten. She is too far down the track to even attempt going back into the crease. Taniya Bhatia collects the ball and whips the bails off in a flash

Thanks for joining us today and we hope you stay back for the men's game starting in 102 minutes from now. Join you later.
Mithali Raj is the player of the match as well as the player of the series.
Mithali Raj showed the importance of staying at the wicket. She managed to adjust herself to the pace of the pitch and attacked thereafter. She was aided ably by Jemima Rodrigues. Harmanpreet Kaur rubbed it in for South Africa by her batting. While it may not show, the biggest difference between the teams was the ground fielding. While the South Africans let a few runs through, Indians din't. And the catch by Jemima Rodrigues, what can be said about it ? She is all of 17 and the judgement, fielding as well as batting, shown by her belies her age. India seem to have found a player for future.

Dhar to Kapp, OUT
short ball outside the off stump. Kapp is thinking six till it reaches the rope at midwicket, but Jemima Rodrigues pops out of nowhere, leaps on the spot and pulls off a stunner! She is inches in front of the rope as she takes the catch. That effort can rank alongside any of the brilliant takes at the boundary rope.

Dhar to Kapp, no run
good length ball outside the off stump. Kapp is looking to ramp it and misses it. The keeper, Taniya Bhatia, is blinded by the movement of Kapp as she doesn't react and hit flush on the crown of her helmet. All seems to be good as she gets back up

Klass walks in now. If her classy fielding is replicated in her batting, South Africa will be in with a chance

fuller ball outside the off stump. Ismail is beaten by the wrong one on the run and is stumped. Poonam Yadav channels her inner Kohli as she celebrates with her fists pumping. The jump is missing though
