Opener Quinton de Kock hit a 46-ball 90 to set up South Africa's convincing 51-run win over India in the second T20 international and level the series on Thursday.
-
De Kock's knock laced with five fours and seven sixes powered South Africa to 213-4 after being invited to bat first on the outskirts of Chandigarh.
South Africa bowled India out for 162 in 19.1 overs despite Tilak Varma's valiant 62 off 34 balls as the visitors pulled one back after they lost the opener of the five-match series.
The series is part of the buildup for the T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka in February-March.
Medium-pace bowler Ottneil Baartman stood out with figures of 4-24.
The left-handed de Kock set the tone for the big win after he put on 83 runs for the second wicket with skipper Aiden Markram, who made 29.
