A new low for Team India as South Africa record a superb 2-0 Test series win in India, their first after a wait of 25 years. The Proteas completely outclass India, who had no answers in Kolkata and showed a timid approach in Guwahati. Simon Harmer proved to be the wrecker-in-chief, as his 17 wickets at an unimaginable average of 8.9 made things unplayable for the hosts.
India have now lost 5 of their last 7 Test matches in India. While their performance in England earlier this year was confidence-boosting, India, under Gautam Gambhir, have been extremely poor at home. Not long ago last year, New Zealand thrashed India 3-0, becoming the first team to win a Test series in India after 12 years. With all these matches, records tend to be created. Records that India might not want to know. But you surely would want to.
