Without two of the biggest names in world cricket available to them, South Africa still produced a showstopper at the Bellerive Oval.
Here are some of the reactions on social media to the Proteas’ historic win:
To think Kagiso Rabada is only 21 and Quinton de Kock is only 23-years-old. Future looks very bright #ProteaFire

Great series win by the proteas,go on for another series whitewash 👊
Proteas have consistently disappointed me on this tour - every time I get up to watch, they've already thrashed the Aussies!

When you wake up for cricket but you're too late - SA won by an innings and 80 runs courtesy 9 wickets in the match by Abbott 😂 #ProteaFire
