Thanks for joining us. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. Until next time...

Winning captain Shikhar Dhawan: "I am proud of the boys, the way they played. We showed a lot of character in the first game, we dropped a few catches, but we never really put pressure on ourselves. We tried to stick to the process. I am enjoying the journey, I'll try to keep performing well for my team. The boys showed great character on such tough batting pitches. The bowlers were clinical today."

Mohammad Siraj is the Player of the Series for his five wickets in the series. "Performing against a good team gives you a lot of confidence. I had to take the responsibility. I try to figure out the right lengths at the start of the innings. As a fast bowler you need that fire and passion inside you."

Kuldeep Yadav is the Player of the Match for his four-wicket haul. "Feeling very happy, to be honest. The wicket was perfect and I am enjoying my bowling. I am not thinking too much about the result, just focusing on the process and focusing on my rhythm. I am trying to bowl in good areas. My next target is to perform well in Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament.

South Africa's stand-in captain David Miller: "Didn't help scoring just 99. Disappointing result to finish off the series in that way. There was a bit of spin, and it was two paced, it was tacky as it was under covers due to the rain. We were really good in certain areas, we managed to find our feet. We just need to extend the good periods when it comes to ODIs."

6.35pm The finale ends in anti-climatic fashion. South Africa have been run over by India's spinners on a slow Kotla deck.

India have stormed to a fifth successive series win after their spinners combined to bowl South Africa out for their lowest ODI total against India and fourth-lowest in the format, inside 28 overs. Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed and Kuldeep Yadav shared eight wickets between them to play a massive part.

Jansen to Iyer, SIX, there it is! Iyer fittingly belts this on the up for six to clinch India's series win. Sees this slower length ball having enough width and uses his tremendous bat speed to meet th ball on its way up. Away she goes.

Ngidi to Shubman Gill, OUT, the half-century won't be coming tonight, and that's because Gill is struck in front in trying to play all around a full delivery. Would've crashed into middle of middle.
