India secured a significant 2-1 series win over South Africa, highlighted by Yashasvi Jaiswal's maiden ODI hundred, earning them a nine-wicket victory in Visakhapatnam on Saturday.

Jaiswal, partnering effectively with Rohit Sharma in a commanding opening stand of 155, remained not out on 116, leading India to surpass a 271-run target with over 10 overs to spare. India captain KL Rahul praised the team's composure, stating, "The most pleasing thing about the series is how we held our nerve."

South Africa's innings, despite Quinton de Kock's brisk 106, concluded at 270 in the 48th over, with notable bowling performances from Prasidh Krishna (4-66) and Kuldeep Yadav (4-41) dismantling the lineup, securing India's triumph.
