South Africa achieved a stunning 30-run victory over India in the first Test at Eden Gardens, despite being dismissed for just 159 on the first day. Chasing a target of 124, India faltered, bowled out for only 93 within 35 overs. This win marked South Africa’s first Test triumph in India in 15 years, giving them a 1-0 lead in the two-match series. Simon Harmer’s exceptional bowling performance, along with contributions from teammates, effectively dismantled India’s batting order.
