The Indian players celebrate with the trophy and will head to the U19 World Cup with a lot of confidence. The tournament starts on January 15 in Bulawayo and it'll be India taking on USA in the opener. That's it from us here. Until next time, it's goodbye!
Suryavanshi | India captain: Everyone did well. Lots of positives in all departments. Good effort on the field and good intensity. Will just follow the process and give our 100 percent at the World Cup.
Bulbulia | SA captain: Not the result we were after but still a lot of positive things to take going forward. The positive stuff has to be taken forward and the rest left behind.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi is Player of the Match and the Player of the Series
16:21 Local Time, 14:21 GMT, 19:51 IST: A blistering hundred earlier in the day and a wicket to finish it off from Vaibhav Suryavanshi! India inflict a 3-0 whitewash on hosts. The victory margin today is a massive one of 233 runs, and it was largely set up by that opening stand between Suryavanshi and Aaron George, both of whom struck hundreds and laid the base for a huge total of 393. In response, South Africa lost four wickets in the first 4.2 overs and were never in the hunt. Time for the presentations...
