Indian captain Virat Kohli hit 160 not out and led India to a third successive convincing win in the third one-day international against South Africa at Newlands on Wednesday. India won by 124 runs to take a 3-0 lead in the six-match series. "We can't lose the series so that is a huge boost for the team," said Kohli. "Now we want to increase our intensity even more to close that door." Kohli dominated India's total of 303 for six after the tourists had been sent in on a good batting pitch. Needing to mount the highest successful run chase at the ground, South Africa fell woefully short. They were bowled out for 179.
