South Africa did win the series, but not on Feb 23. That was the first match. It was decided at the end of the second match which was Mar. 3. Problem here is the date after which wagers were voided (Feb 24). Should have been later, I think. This is discussed at

Sorry. The second match was completed on Mar 3 -- it started on Feb 29.
