Having won while batting second in the primary match of the series, in East London, this time around Britain were approached to set up a score. They hit an early hindrance, when Ayanda Hlubi struck two times in her opening over to diminished them to 15 for 2 - yet Wyatt-Hodge and Sciver-Brunt just stunned the gas pedal in light of placed Britain in the driving seat.

In any case, they lost Tazmin Brits in Sciver-Brunt's first finished, pulling gently to midwicket, and had edged along to 30 for 1 toward the finish of the powerplay. Glenn accepted out the center request as the asking rate increased, and albeit some late hitting from Chloe Tryon and Nadine de Klerk made the last edge good, South Africa were well short. Wyatt-Hodge leads quick counter Britain were at that point going at 10 an over when Hlubi hit with her third and fifth real balls, Maia Bouchier following up successive limits with a manageable chip to midwicket, before Sophia Dunkley played on for a duck.

Sciver-Brunt proceeds with fine structure In spite of the fact that she was easily outscored by Wyatt-Hodge during their stand, Sciver-Brunt slipped into another telling presentation, having been the main impetus behind Britain's effective pursue in the principal T20I. She was likewise dropped, on 32, top-edging a scope off Mlaba, however moved the energy of the Britain innings along, regularly utilizing her feet to control the field while taking out limits en route.

Dercksen endure being bowled off a no-ball by Lauren Filer except for when she and Shangase were bowled off back to back Glenn conveyances, the dance was up for South Africa, requiring 119 off the last eight - despite the fact that Tryon, de Klerk and Jafta all cleared the ropes in the end stages to give the scoreline some decency.
