In Centurion, India's vaunted pace attack demolished a listless South African batting line-up to fashion an emphatic 113-run win in the first Test.
India posted 327 in the first innings, with KL Rahul scoring a century and fellow opener Mayank Agarwal scoring a half-century. In response, the Proteas were bowled out for 197, with Mohammed Shami picking fifer.
India managed just 174 in the second innings but that proved more than enough as the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami bowled magnificently to skittle South Africa out for 191 and seal a 113-run win for the visitors.
After the game, skipper Kohli hailed Shami as one of the "top three seam bowlers in the world".
"Shami is an absolutely world-class bowler, among top three seam bowlers in the world for me. Very, very happy for him to get 200 wickets and have an impactful performances," said Kohli.
