India suffered a humiliating 30-run loss to South Africa in the first Test of the two-match series at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
India’s defeat while chasing a target of 124 runs now ranks among the lowest Test targets the team has failed to chase. South Africa’s defence of 124, on the other hand, is also one of their most impressive performances, as it is the second-lowest target they have successfully defended in Test cricket. This match is also among the lowest targets ever defended on Indian soil.
