The second Test match between India and South Africa in Cape Town ended in just two days, making it the shortest completed Test match in cricket history. India won by 7 wickets after bowling out South Africa for 176 in the second innings. The entire match lasted just 107 overs across three innings, breaking the previous record of 109.2 overs set in a Test between Australia and South Africa in 1932. Led by Jasprit Bumrah's five wicket haul, India dismissed South Africa cheaply in both innings. Chasing a paltry target of 79, India coasted to victory to level the series 1-1. The Cape Town Test goes down in history as the shortest ever Test match to produce a result.
