Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar has been ruled out of the remaining three One-Day Internationals against South Africa and has been replaced in India's squad by left-hand batsman Parthiv Patel.

Tendulkar scored seven in the opening match in Durban, which South Africa won by 135 runs, and he then scored 24 in the second match - his 443rd ODI appearance - as India snatched a one-run to level the series.

"Sachin Tendulkar will not take further part in the ongoing ODI series against South Africa due to a hamstring injury," a statement from the Indian board (BCCI) said.

"Parthiv Patel is being flown to South Africa as his replacement."

Patel opened the batting in the recent ODI seres against New Zealand when regular wicket-keeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was given a rest.

South Africa Clinch Series Despite Pathan Brilliance

India's Yusuf Pathan hammered 105 in 70 balls but his belligerent innings was in vain as South Africa won the decisive fifth One-Day International by 33 runs at Centurion Park. Hashim Amla's less aggressive, but no less impressive 116 had enabled South Africa to post 250 for nine from 46 overs and India were then bowled out for 234 in 40.2 overs as South Africa took the series 3-2.

Amla And Duminy Set Up Series Decider

Half-centuries from Hashim Amla and JP Duminy set up South Africa's 48-run over India in the fourth One-Day International in Port Elizabeth that levelled the five-match series at 2-2 with one match to play. Batting first, South Africa scored 265 for seven and in reply, despite Virat Kohli's unbeaten 87, India closed on 142 for six having been set a revised target of 260 in 42 overs. When play was ended, they needed to have scored 191 to win.

India Gain Series Lead By Clinching Two-Wicket Win

Yusuf Pathan blasted 59 in 50 balls and Zaheer Khan picked up three wickets to underpin India's two-wicket victory over South Africa in the third One-Day International in Cape Town. South Africa were bowled out for 220 after winning the toss but despite chasing under lights at Newlands being anything but easy, India got home with ten balls to spare.

Zaheer Stars As India Dismiss South Africa For 220

South Africa were bowled out for 220 by India to set up an interesting chase under lights, after South African skipper Graeme Smith won the toss and elected to bat first in the third One-Day Internationals in Cape Town. The Indian new-ball seamers bowled exceedingly well and rarely allowed anything loose for the Proteas batsman to capitalise on.
