That brings us to the end of our coverage today. Hope you've enjoyed it. Look forward to some 50-overs cricket now with the ODI series starting in a couple of days time. Remember, that's a different India squad, led by Shikhar Dhawan and coached by VVS Laxman. We'll be back to bring you the series opener from Lucknow. Goodbye for now. Be well.

It's time for the presentations

Rohit Sharma: As a team, we said it at the beginning no matter what happens about the result, there's always room for improvement. Even if we do well in all three departments, want to keep getting better. Areas of concerns, we have to look at our bowling, what more options we can find in the powerplay, middle and death. We were playing two quality sides, have to go back and see what better we can do. It will be challenging and we need to find answers, still working towards that. Guys need lot more clarity in terms of what they want to achieve and it's my job to make sure it happens. We want to continue to keep doing that. Lot of the guys haven't been to Australia, which is why we wanted to go early. Play on some bouncy pitches in Perth and see what we can do there. Out of the 15, only 7-8 have been there before, so wanted to make an effort to go there early. We've organised a couple of practice games. Bumrah is a big mix, but there are a few guys in the reckoning. We'll make the call once we reach Australia.

Suryakumar Yadav is the Player of the Series for his 119 runs, including two half-centuries. "I'm not a stats man, but my friends keep sending me stuff on WhatsApp [when asked if he knew he hit 50 sixes this calendar year]. Haven't thought about Australia just yet but it's a challenge am really looking forward to."

Rilee Rossouw is the Player of the Match. It's something every cricketer goes through [coming in on the back of two ducks]. Knew something's special in store. It was special, I'm glad to have been able to contribute.

Temba Bavuma: Win like this is big for our confidence. Can take a lot from this game. If we look back, in the first game, our batting didn't click. We didn't adapt to the conditions. In the second games, we had plans that we didn't execute. Today, we were a lot clearer in terms of the plans and what we were trying to do.

India coach Rahul Dravid: Good to get the right results in both series. In this format, you need luck, things to go your way, especially in close games. We didn't have that in the Asia Cup, but had some luck during the Australia series. We were able to rotate the squad a bit, pleased with how it's gone overall. We made a decision after the last T20 WC, sat down with Rohit, made a conscious effort to be positive. We have the batsmanship to play positively, we had to structure our squad with batting depth. Pleased with the way we've come along. Bumrah's absence is a big loss, he's been a great player but it happens, it's an opportunity for someone else to stand up. We'll miss him, his personality around the group. Today was an opportunity to give guys who haven't had much batting to get some time. It's hard on guys like Rishabh, Dinesh. Wish both of them could've continued, they were batting beautifully. 4-5 overs more and it could've been a lot closer. Happy with the way we kept going, Harshal and Deepak and the other guys.

10.40pm Everything going right for South Africa then, except the toss. That they won defending a score would please them no end. India, you'd argue, were a batter short. That said, their hell or high water approach shortchanged them in the end, mainly because they were thin on batting tonight.

Elsewhere, the ninth season of Pro Kabaddi League is set to begin on October 7. This edition will see some major player changes after the big-spending auctions, a musical chair among coaching and oh, fans back in the stands! Here's the only PKL 9 preview you want to read.
