Time for the presentation...
Earlier, South Africa reached a competitive total thanks to half-centuries from Reeza Hendricks and Rilee Rossouw. The latter remained unbeaten till the end and it was an outstanding final over from Chris Jordan that prevented Rilee Rossouw from reaching his maiden T20I century. It was the English bowlers that received the treatment this time around as they were only able to claim three wickets between them.
South Africa looked like they went back to the drawing room and analyzed their weaknesses. They entered this game on the back of a poor bowling and fielding performance and looked determined to put up a better show here. Tabraiz Shamsi was taken to the cleaners in the last game but was the pick of the bowlers here taking 3 wickets for 27 runs in his quota of four overs. Andile Phehlukwayo was a little expensive but ended up taking three wickets as well. Lungi Ngidi chipped in with two wickets and was really economical. It was their fielding that proved to be remarkable and completed an all-round performance by the Proteas.
England did not start off the run chase well with Jason Roy unable to time the ball. Jos Buttler looked good in his cameo but could not capitalize on his start. Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali also got going but lost their wickets at crucial intervals. In the end, the target seemed a long way as the rest of the batters collapsed and they were bowled out for just 149 runs having faced 20 deliveries less than their total quota.
What a comeback this has been from South Africa! After being dominated in the first T20I, they have returned to beat England by 58 runs in this second game to level the series! Now there is all to play for as we go to Southampton for the final game which will be a series decider.
