I would rather say India was lucky after that rough start that this match ended in No result otherwise would have been a defeat for India.
No there is no Odi or Test series as far as I know, as India is going for UK tour where it'll be playing T20 with Ireland first and then will be having a test series against England. In this time of the year, it's really best to have matches in Europe.

As long as it is not raining, Europe is ideal to have matches at this time of the year. England is playing an ODI series against the Netherlands as of now, and the weather looked very pleasant. That said, it is too early to predict the outcome of the 5th T20I, if there was no rain interruption. South Africa managed to take two quick wickets (both the openers - Ishan Kishan and Ruturaj Gaikwad got out to Lungi Ngidi), but as we have seen in the previous matches Indian middle order is very strong (esp. Hardik Pandya and Dinesh Karthik).

I was very much interested to watch the final decider match between the two teams, but the rain spoiled the event and the series ended 2-2. I would not say that India or South Africa was the beneficiary of this result. The final match could have gone anywhere and also we have seen that South Africans are not good at chasing. (Indians were batting first in the final match too)
The BCCI should be aware of the weather situation in South India during this season and it was raining heavily for the past two weeks and i knew that rain would halt the match. I wish we had a complete match and see who could come out on top in the end but weather had other plans and shared the cup between Indian and South Africa  Cheesy.

Is there a ODI and Test series after this or just the T20 .

After Warriors won against Celtics as expected, I predicted that India would win against South Africa and seal the deal since they bounced back in this fashion many times in the past, but rain screwed my prediction.

India seemed to be struggling initially, but I still felt that they could win this match by a narrow or comfortable margin if rain hadn't interfered. Boring end to the series.

Vaccinized.. immunity level is full.
The match between India and South Africa is being delayed again due to rain. But before the rain started, India batted 3.3 overs. Sadly, they lost their two opener batsmen by collecting just 28 runs. Although the Indian squad has a lot of talented batsmen, it is difficult to collect big if the openers do not play well.
The game has been abandoned. We could have seen a good match but nature opposed it so this match is no more. South Africa have done well in this series and they have gone a long way in trying to beat India to give their full strength. However, India did not play badly. Maybe the final result would have been decided today but that is no longer possible.

The chances of the two teams winning the final match were equal. In the first two matches, we saw great batting from South Africa. They even won by collecting 212 runs from 19.1 overs. But the performance of their batsmen in the last two matches was very poor. They lost all their wickets in just 87 runs. And so I was waiting to enjoy the last match. I thought the last match would be competitive. But the match was abandoned due to rain.

After reducing this match from twenty to ninety it's still not working and we have rain again which is consistently going on in Bengaluru with this most chances we are heading for draw series which is good for both teams and their new good players are going to share this honour. Even though both have ups and downs in this series but they can learn from their mistakes and can do much better in future especially as both teams are preparing for the T-20 World Cup which is going to play in Australia in October and if I am not wrong both teams are in the same group which is good.

From now India's next destination is Ireland, England and West Indies before World Cup and South Africa is also heading for their tough English tour.

It looks like Rain has ruined the decider. Saffa team might able to save their record one more time, although it's 50-50 for both teams.

I hope they don't make this 5-5 overs affair but its only logical to lose overs after this rain delay.
----------

Any positives for Indian team after this series? I'd say mixed bag.

The match has been reduced to 19 overs per side, and therefore we can expect even more fireworks. Rishabh Pant seems to be as unlucky as Virat Kohli, when it comes to winning the toss. Not even once out of 5 times in this series he got his call right. Keshav Maharaj is captaining South Africa and the interesting news is that Tristan Stubbs is included in the playing XI. Tabraiz Shamsi is replaced with Reeza Hendricks, but surprisingly Marco Jansen has been dropped in order to include Kagisio Rabada. I would have rather dropped Lungi Ngidi.  
Ishan Kishan has been very aggressive from the first over. India was able to collect 16 runs in the first over. But India lost Ishan Kishan's wicket in the second over. Kishan returned to the dressing room after collecting 15 runs from 7 balls. And now at the end of 3 overs, India collected 25 runs. Batsmen need to bat with some responsibility. India will win the series if they can win today's match.
I feel somehow the captain has a bad luck. Whatever he does situation doesn't favour him. This match is crucial for the records but BCCI had to schedule it now. I hope the rains stops and the match starts. If not then I will lose my bet within the group of my friends.

The rain has not stopped yet. And the match is less likely to resume. Even if it starts, more overs will probably be reduced. India started today's innings very badly. If the overs are reduced more then India will face more problems. Because the South African batsmen are very experienced and they can bat destructively.

The last match of the T20 series between India and Southafrica will be played today. So far both team have won 2 matches each. Toss will again play a crucial part in this match too. The match is being played in Bengaluru and hopefully as always the pitch would be good for batting. I only fear that rain might interrupt the match as monsoon has already started in south india.  
I predicted rain some hours ago and now I think this match will favour the SA side. SA has already won the toss and elected to field first. This is not good for the Indian side as if the match resume it would be difficult to bat. Another reason to worry is that if the match gets delayed by a few hours then this match get cancelled and the series will be a draw. I hope the drizzling stops as soon as possible and match resumes.

Indian T20I squad has recently played IPL with top players of the world and soon after the IPL they lost 2 T20I. IPL wont have any positive impact on performance of Indian team? South Africa is yet to lose any T20I series in India, if India wins the match today it will be the first time they won a T20 bilateral series against SA.
It is simply because of the IPL that there is new talents uncovered and that too players who are yet to play first class matches, so the bench strength India has right now is simply because of the IPL. The players were scattered in different teams and not playing as a unit in the IPL and to perform as a team it will take some time and bonding that is what happened in the first two matches.

South Africa won the toss and elected to field and i expect a good match and wish rain wont affect the match tonight.  
Rain have already affected the match. The match that was supposed to start have delayed due to rain. As mentioned more young talents have been uncovered through the IPL. Getting into the playing eleven squad is a big thing for now. South Africa winning the toss seems like a winning opportunity for South Africa. Lets see what is happening with the Indian batsmen.

IPL is not just important for the India players. Dozens of overseas players take part as well, and almost all the members of the current South African squad participated in the IPL this season. Therefore I don't believe that the IPL provides any added advantage for the Indian players. And IMO, it is more beneficial for the South African players. Because Indian players already receive sky high salaries from the BCCI. That is not the case with players from South Africa or Australia. For them, the IPL may represent up to 80% of their annual purse.

Since the last T20 world cup, India's performance was very inconsistent, but in the last two T20 matches, they made a nice comeback. While both teams aim to win the T20 series, it would only be irresponsible to sail them out of trouble and continue losing the series. SA is making rapid progress. Their cricket will also benefit if they win. I hope the rain stays away, and I wish both teams the best of luck. It is my wish that the better side wins on the day.
