Mumbai, Oct 25 (IBNS): Guided by three centuries, with Faf du Plessis top scoring with 133, South Africa posted a mammoth 438 for four, which is the highest total on the Indian soil, in the fifth and deciding ODI match against India on Sunday.

Quinton de Kock (109), AB de Villiers (119) and Faf du Plessis manhandled the Indian bowling attack to post the gigantic total on the scorecard.

While, AB de Villiers hammered three boundaries and 11 sixes, Faf du Plessis tore apart the Indian attack with nine boundaries and six sixes in the knocks that terrified the bowlers.

Wankhede Stadium witnessed a helpless Indian attack with Bhuvaneswar Kumar going for the hardest thrashing as he conceded  1 for 106 in his 10 overs.

Harbhajan Singh was the pick of the Indian bowlers as he gave away 70 runs in his ten overs and getting a wicket.

The series is leveled at 2-2.
