Markam's catch helped South Africa restrict their visitors to 289-7 in the fourth ODI, after Shikhar Dhawan (109) and Virat Kohli (75) had propelled India to 178-1 at the end of the 31st over - Dhawan completing a hundred in his 100th one-day international. SCORECARD

South Africa then successfully chased down a revised target of 202 in 28 overs following rain and lightning to record a five-wicket win on DLS and keep their hopes of a series draw alive, having lost the first three games in the six-match contest in Durban, Centurion and Cape Town respectively.
