Just 2 overs of play on Day 4 of the Ranchi Test and India completed a 3-0 series whitewash of South Africa.
After the visitors ended Day 3 at 133/8, debutant Shabaz Nadeem picked the two remaining wickets off back-to-back deliveries to help India close out the victory by an innings and 202 runs.
As Virat Kohli and his men celebrated India’s first-ever series whitewash of the Proteas, they were greeted by a special visitor in the dressing room - former Indian skipper MS Dhoni.
The BCCI tweeted a picture of Dhoni talking to Nadeem, who is also a Ranchi cricketer.
The former skipper hasn't played cricket since India’s semi-final exit from the ICC World Cup this summer and while his immediate plans are not known, the incoming BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has said he will be speaking to the selectors about Dhoni’s plans before the next selection meeting later this week.
