IND vs SA: When did India last lose the test series against South Africa at home?

South Africa are on the verge of winning the IND vs SA Test.

The Indian Cricket Team are locking horns with the South African Cricket Team in the final match of the Test series. The second game of the two-match series between the teams is taking place at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati.

India, who lost the first test by a margin of 30 runs, have been put under massive pressure by South Africa in the second Test. The Proteas have come up with an incredible show with the bat and ball and are on the verge of winning the second IND vs SA test. 

South Africa won the toss and opted to bat. They came up with a sensational outing with the bat and posted 489. Senuram Muthusamy slammed his maiden test century, while Marco Jansen 93 played a great innings as well, taking his team to a big total. 

Marco Jansen then displayed his magic with the ball as he picked six wickets as Indian batters struggled. Yashasvi Jaiswal (58) slammed a fifty but the middle-order failed terribly. Washington Sundar in the end played an innings of 48 as India got all out for 201, conceding a mammoth lead of 288. 

South Africa, who won the first test by 30 runs, registered their first test win in India after 15 long years. Now, they are looking to win the second match and win the series by a margin of 2-0, completing a whitewash. 

When did India lose the last test series against South Africa at home?

South Africa have taken a lead of over 300 runs in the second IND vs SA test. They look favourites to win the series and if that happens it will be their first series win in India after a long gap of 26 years.
