Johannesburg [South Africa]: A five-wicket haul by Kuldeep Yadav and ton by Suryakumar Yadav helped India secure a 106-run win over South Africa in the third and final T20I at Johannesburg.

India has ended the series level at 1-1. The first match was called off due to rain.

In the defence of 202 runs, India was off to a fine start as Mukesh Kumar removed Matthew Breetske for just 4. SA was 4/1 in 1.3 overs.

Kuldeep destroyed the Proteas lower-order and also got the wicket of David Miller (35 in 25 balls with two fours and two sixes). Proteas were bundled out for 95 in 13.5 overs.

Kuldeep (5/17) was the leading bowler for India. Jadeja took two wickets while Arshdeep and Mukesh got one each.
