Proteas aim to seal thrilling ODI series
Cape Times
|December 05, 2025
OVER the past decade, when India have hosted the Proteas for a ODI series, it is almost guaranteed to go right down to the wire.
AIDEN Markram says South Africa are high in confidence as they aim to clinch the ODI series against India in Vizag tomorrow.

Who can ever forget the five-match series in 2015, where the AB de Villiers-captained South Africa beat the MS Dhoni-led India 3-2, winning the fifth and final match to seal what was a highly entertaining series?
In engagements with the media, Proteas fast bowler Kagiso Rabada still refers to that series as the best he has been involved in his career.
These past five days, the two teams, under different leaders in South Africa’s Temba Bavuma and India’s KL Rahul, have produced fireworks of the same calibre in Ranchi and Raipur. The ongoing three-match series is currently deadlocked, with each side having one win.
The series decider is set for Visakhapatnam tomorrow.
