After a 2-1 loss to South Africa in the Test series, India were determined to make things right in the limited overs. Rohit Sharma was at the helm of things in the fifth ODI as he helped India clinch the six-match series before the last match. Shikhar Dhawan's 23-ball 34 gave India a blazing start but he departed in the eighth over with 48 runs on board.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli did what they do the best - building a great partnership. They added 105 runs for the second wicket but the partnership ended abruptly when Rohit Sharma sent back Virat Kohli. Even after losing his partner, Rohit went onto to make 115 runs in the match.

After Rohit's dismissal in the 43rd over, India lost wickets at regular intervals and ended up with a score of 274/7. Initially, Hashim Amla led South Africa's chase with a fifty but him getting run out triggered a South African collapse. India's spin twins - Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal - cleaned up the middle and lower to give India a comfortable 73-run win.
