Suresh Raina has scored a quickfire 43 and grabbed the key wicket of David Miller as India defeated hosts South Africa by seven runs to claim a 2-1 victory in their Twenty20 series at Newlands.
Sent in to bat India, without injured captain Virat Kohli, posted 7-172 in their 20 overs before restricting South Africa to 6-165.
Raina's runs came from just 27 balls as he caressed five fours and a six, putting on 65 for the second wicket with opener Shikhar Dhawan (47 from 40 balls).
Seamer Junior Dala (3-35) was the pick of the home bowlers as he posted career-best figures.
South Africa made a sluggish start to their reply and were always behind the required run-rate.
Explosive Miller (24 from 23 balls) was elevated to open the batting, but was bogged down by the line of the Indian bowlers and fell to Raina (1-27 in three overs) as he tried to up the tempo.
Only captain JP Duminy (55 from 41 balls) and debutant Christiaan Jonker (49 from 24 balls) were able to muster innings of substance.
South Africa required 19 off the final over bowled by the excellent Bhuvneshwar Kumar (2-24), but were restricted to a single boundary to fall short of their target.
The match brought to an end India's two-month tour. South Africa won the Test series 2-1 before being thumped 5-1 by India in the one-dayers.
South Africa start a four-Test series at home to Australia on Thursday.
