All the stats highlights from South Africa's monumental win over India in the second Test in Guwahati.

India's misery at home continues

3 - This was just the third clean-sweep suffered by India at home, after they'd gone down 0-2 against the same opponents in 2000 and 0-3 against New Zealand last year.

5 - India have now lost five of their last seven home Tests; their previous five home defeats had spanned across 50 Tests and 13 seasons.

2 - This was their second defeat in successive seasons at home. They had lost only two home series post the 0-2 drubbing to SA in 2000 until the New Zealand series last year: against Australia in 2004 and against England in 2012.

The last time India lost two Test series at home across two consecutive years was over four decades ago: against West Indies in 1983 and against England in 1984/85.

408 runs happens to be India's biggest ever defeat-margin in terms of runs, surpassing 342 against Australia in Nagpur in 2004. It is also the second biggest victory margin for South Africa, after their 492-run win against Australia in Johannesburg in 2018.

It was just the second time that India were set a 500-plus target in a home Test, after the aforementioned 2004 Nagpur Test.
