South Africa recently enjoyed a clean sweep in the one-day format against Australia and on this day 14 years ago, it was all smiles for the Proteas in their first ODI at home.

India were the opponents in Cape Town with Sachin Tendulkar, Kapil Dev and Anil Kumble all featuring. But the tourists were bowled out for 184 in 49 overs with the late Hansie Cronje the pick of the bowlers with figures of 5-32.

The hosts made it difficult for themselves in the run-chase but reached their target with six wickets in hand in the last over.

The match saw Kepler Wessels, who scored 43, become the first man to be given out by the video umpire in an ODI match.
