India showcased their batting prowess by declaring their first innings at an imposing 603/6.

Following on, South Africa put up a better fight in their second innings but were eventually bowled out for 373. Laura Wolvaardt and Sune Luus had scored centuries, but South Africa couldn’t overcome deficit. 

Needing just 37 runs to win, India's openers quickly chased down the target without losing a wicket, securing a comprehensive 10-wicket victory.
