| Jos Buttler Wk | 83 | 30 | 8 | 7 | 276.66 |
|
7.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Some respite for South Africa as Jos Buttler departs after a blistering knock of 83(30). Too full and wide down the leg, Jos Buttler tries to paddle this, but plays this uppish and hits this straight to Tristan Stubbs at the deep backward square leg fence. Tristan Stubbs overran it for a moment but did well to adjust and grab this one around his chest. England are 126/1. 126/1

| Jacob Bethell | 26 | 14 | 2 | 2 | 185.71 |
|
14.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Smart bowling from Bjorn Fortuin. Risky to bring on the left-arm spinner to the left-hander but Fortuin floats the ball up wide of the off stump. Jacob Bethell wants to play the lofted shot down the ground but has to reach for it and hits it high up and back over the bowler's head. Marco Jansen at long off, moves to his left and takes the skier nicely. Bethell departs for 26 (14) and England are now 221/2! 221/2

7.3 OUT! TAKEN! Adil Rashid gets the big fish here! He gives this one some more air, full and around off, and turns away too. Aiden Markram backs away and looks to go big down the ground, but fails to get underneath it completely. His bat turns in his hands and fails to get the distance or the elevation as the ball goes straight up in the air. Will Jacks at long off settles under it and pouches it safely. Markram departs for 41 off 20 balls, and South Africa are 77/4! 77/4

| Ryan Rickelton Wk | 20 | 10 | 2 | 2 | 200 |
|
3.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Liam Dawson takes a good catch to send Ryan Rickelton back in the dugout. Back of a length around middle and leg, and a touch closer to the batter this time than the previous two occasions. Ryan Rickelton pulls but mistimes it towards Liam Dawson at mid-wicket. Dawson times his jump to his left and holds onto this. Archer is pumped up, and South Africa are 50/1, chasing a target of 305. 50/1

| Lhuan-dre Pretorius | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 100 |
|
4 OUT! CAUGHT! Double-whammy for Jofra Archer. Lhuan-dre Pretorius falls prey to the variation of Archer. Slower cutter, around off and full. Lhuan-dre Pretorius gets down on a knee and looks to slog this out of the park, but the batter ends up with a leading edge right in front of Luke Wood at cover point. Luke Wood runs in and dives full stretch before holding onto it. Lhuan-dre Pretorius departs for 2(2), and South Africa are 53/2, chasing a target of 305. 53/2

| Dewald Brevis | 4 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 133.33 |
|
4.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Dewald Brevis succumbs to this mammoth total, and South Africa's best bet is back in the hut with the dismissal of in-form Brevis, it seems. Sam Curran bends his back and fires in a short-pitched delivery around middle and leg. Brevis looks to pull but mistimes it and hangs it over Jofra Archer at mid on, where Archer makes no mistake. South Africa are 58/3, needing 247 more in 92 balls. 58/3

| Tristan Stubbs | 23 | 25 | 0 | 1 | 92 |

13.4 OUT! CAUGHT! The misery of Tristan Stubbs finally comes to an end, and South Africa lose their seventh. Liam slows it up, on a nagging length and outside off, spinning away from the batter. Tristan Stubbs gets down on one knee and looks to cut it as he extends his arms, but ends up slicing it off the outer half of the bat. The ball lobs up towards short third, where Jofra Archer moves to his left a bit and pouches it. He is all smiles, and South Africa are 127/7 127/7

| Donovan Ferreira | 23 | 11 | 3 | 1 | 209.09 |
|
10.5 OUT! TAKEN! Sam Curran gets his second! He bangs this one hard into the pitch, on middle, gets some extra bounce as well. Donovan Ferreira looks to pull it away, but gets a bit hurried as the ball takes the top edge. It flies behind towards the short fine leg region, but Sam is already celebrating. Jos Buttler, the keeper, turns around and runs backwards, gets under the ball and takes it with ease. A quick-fire 23 off 11 balls from Ferreira, but the Proteas lose half their side now. 115/5

11.3 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Jofra Archer has three now! He takes pace off, serves this full and on middle. Marco Jansen goes through his drive a bit early and just chips it back towards the bowler. Archer, on his follow-through, gets down quickly and tries to grab it in front. However, it pops out, but he shows great awareness to pluck it with his left hand. South Africa are 116/6, still needing 189 runs in 51 balls. 116/6

| Bjorn Fortuin | 32 | 16 | 3 | 2 | 200 |
|
15.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! A simple catch for Jos Buttler and South Africa lose their eighth! Jacks bowls it fuller from around the wicket and keeps it way outside off. Bjorn Fortuin gets down on one knee and looks to fetch out with a slog-sweep, but mistimes it off the toe end of the bat. The ball skies up beside the pitch on the leg side, and Buttler calls for the catch from behind the wickets and pouches it around his chest. South Africa are 158/8. 158/8

| Kagiso Rabada | 9 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 225 |

16.1 OUT! CAUGHT! DONE AND DUSTED! England have registered their biggest victory, while this is also the biggest defeat for South Africa in T20Is, both in terms of runs. Plenty of records have been broken in the match. A bit shorter and outside off, Kagiso Rabada uses his feet and looks to go for a lofted shot over covers, but ends up mistiming it off the toe end of the bat towards backward point, where Jofra Archer runs across to his left from short third and takes another catch around his chest. England beat South Africa by 146 runs in the second T20I to keep the 3-match series alive at 1-1, going into the third match. 158/10

15.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Another perishes, and Will Jacks will be on a hat trick on the next ball. He tosses it up, around middle, Kwena Maphaka changes his stance and grip to attempt a reverse-sweep on his first ball, but ends up miscuing it off the upper half of the bat. The ball lobs up towards cover, where Jacob Bethell leaps and takes the catch above his head. South Africa are 158/9. 158/9
