Not many teams beat India in a Test series in India. Today South Africa took a giant step towards becoming the first side to do so for 13 years with victory in the first Test, in Mumbai. It was a tense, low-scoring affair, and looked to be going India's way when they took a first-innings lead of 49. But Hansie Cronje dismissed Sachin Tendulkar for the fifth time in his career as India collapsed to 113. Chasing 163, South Africa were rocking at 128 for 6 when Mark Boucher seized the day: with Jacques Kallis a rock-solid anchor, Boucher whacked six boundaries in a 32-ball 27.
The South Africa national cricket team visited India in 2000 for a two-match Test series and a five-match ODI series. The Test teams were led by Hansie Cronje and Sachin Tendulkar respectively for South Africa and India, while the latter's ODI side was led by Sourav Ganguly.
