Chennai: Praising centurion Virat Kohli for his superb batting in the side's series-levelling win against South Africa, Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni yesterday said that it was the first game in which his team did well in all the three departments.

Electing to bat, India rode on Kohli's brilliant 138 to post 299 for eight in 50 overs and were then able to restrict the visitors for 264 for nine, despite a valiant century by skipper AB de Villiers. The five-match series is now tied at 2-2.
