Quinton de Kock scored his seventh One-Day International (ODI) century to help South Africa reach 270/7 in 50 overs against India during their third match of the series at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium here on Sunday.

Left-handed opening batsman de Kock (103) and Faf du Plessis put together an 118-run stand for the third wicket that threatened India.

But the home bowlers pulled things back to contain the visiting team. Medium pacer Mohit Sharma picked two wickets, while off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, leg-spinner Amit Mishra and left-arm spinner Axar Patel took a wicket apiece.
