After Deepak Chahar and Arshdeep Singh ran over the Proteas batting line-up, India accomplished a small total in just 17 overs. Suryakumar Yadav and KL Rahul scored crucial fifties to finish the job. The Proteas were limited to just 106, which would never be enough against a solid Indian batting line-up.

India were already dealt with a blow when Jasprit Bumrah was ruled out to a back spasm before the match, and Chahar was drafted in as his replacement.
