    1st Test: SA Beat India By 30 Runs In First Test

    By IANS News November 16, 2025 • 15:28 PM View: 447

    Despite being bowled out for 159 on day one after choosing to bat first, World Test Championship winners South Africa executed a remarkable comeback to defeat India by 30 runs in the first Test at Eden Gardens on Sunday. Chasing a modest target of 124, South Africa dismissed India for only 93 in 35 overs on Day 3.

    The 30-run victory also marked South Africa’s first Test win in India after 15 years, as the visitors now hold a 1-0 lead in the two-match series. Off-spinner Simon Harmer starred with figures of 4-21, while the rest of the attack combined to dismantle India’s batting order on a challenging pitch, where anything above 100 to chase was always going to be a tough ask.
