South Africa win the series by 2-1. The trophy is handed to Bavuma and the celebration starts. That's all from this exciting three-game series. Hope you enjoyed the coverage. Keep checking the schedule page as the action continues across the globe. Till then, Goodbye and Cheers!
Temba Bavuma says he is very happy, they came into the series under pressure but they have done well and he is proud of how they played. States they just wanted to express themselves and look to be positive and that is what they kept speaking about. Adds there were a lot of positives. Ends by saying winning the series was main and he is very happy about how things went about.
Jos Buttler wins the Player of the Series and Player of the Match award. He says it is good to finish with a win. States they have played some good cricket. He congratulates South Africa but he is delighted to get a win. States it was a really good effort to post 340 from the position they were in. They spoke about building a partnership and they knew they could catch up. Says guys going on and making tons is really good and with the ball, there have been some really good things like Archer's performance. Ends by saying the schedule is something they need to try and work with and it is great to be back together and they look forward to the challenges ahead.
Presentation time...
Earlier in the day, England were three down for hardly anything after being inserted but Buttler and Malan played sublime knocks. The two added over 200 and courtesy that England managed to score close to 350 which in the end, they managed to defend easily.
For South Africa, none of their batters went onto make a big score. They needed someone to play a knock like Buttler or Malan but that was not the case. Heinrich Klaasen played brilliantly but fell at the wrong time. There were a few in the top order who got off to start but whenever the momentum seemed like shifting towards the hosts, England managed to strike.
Jofra Archer and Adil Rashid between them shared 9 out of the 10 wickets to fall. The rest just were not upto the mark. Chris Woakes was either too full or too short and the same with Curran. Thankfully for England, they scored enough that despite majority of their bowlers having a bad day, they managed to come out on top.
What an outstanding bowling effort from Jofra Archer. Had he not been there, it would have surely been South Africa who would have won this game.

Jofra Archer To Tabraiz Shamsi OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Sixth one for Archer and he does the job for his team! A slower length ball, angling on off. Shamsi fails to put his bat on it and the ball hits the off pole. A solid win for England as they win by 59 runs.

Jofra Archer To Wayne Parnell OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! England are nearing as they get the main wicket. Jofra Archer gets a five-fer. What a performance from him. A length ball on middle. Wayne Parnell tries hard to cut this as he opens his body up but only to miss and the ball hits the stumps. South Africa had this game in hand past couple of overs ago.

Adil Rashid To Sisanda Magala OUT!
OUT! GONE! Rashid strikes on his last delivery! Beautifully bowled! A flighted ball, full, outside off and spins away. Magala has a wild swing as he looks to drive but gets a faint edge to the keeper who makes no mistake. England need two wickets now.

A googly and this spins a long way. Magala prods to defend but misses it completely. An appeal for LBW but the finger stays down. England tries their luck with the review but it was going well down.

Jofra Archer To Heinrich Klaasen OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Is that the game for England? The big man, Heinrich Klaasen is out here! A short ball on middle, this is pulled towards deep square leg and it is taken there by the fielder with a dive forward. A top class knock from Klaasen but his team needed him to stay longer. Still a lot of runs to get for his side.
