Commentary

Right then. With that, that's the end of the multi format series as England sweep all the formats and South Africa have plenty to think about, going back to the drawing board and see where things went wrong for them. There's plenty more cricket coming up, do tune into Sportskeeda for more cricketing action, until next time this was Shashwat Kumar and Pradeep signing off, stay safe and take care!

Nat Sciver (Captain, England): Absolutely, the aggression to do well once they get the chance is good, Dunkley's played good in the first two games, that's T20 cricket and felt a bit tricky surface, it was skidding on, stopped on me little me but Ecclestone was in her zone. She's spent a lot of time in the nets, I think everyone did their job today. I think we certainly settled the way we want to play, especially the powerplay, whether it's with the bat or ball, taking wickets and scoring those runs up front. Absolutely, I have played Kemp twice in the domestic games, we haven't seen her bat yet but she can really hit some long ones. I think this is the best of the performances from England, being able to adapt to different formats, slightly how we wanted to play from the ODI format, it's been really exciting. I can't think of one name, everyone contributed, people have really taken their chances and I think that's what makes this side exciting. When you are enjoying cricket, things go well. I think it is the side to beat Australia, this is our chance, playing Australia is more about mind games, big players stepping up in big moments is key.

Chloe Tryon (Captain, South Africa): Look we had a discussion before the game, go out their and give your 110% and Mlaba did just that, first ball of the game a wicket, we did well in the first 15 overs but then gave it away in the final five I thought. The way we were going we thought Klaas was going really well, just felt that the spinners were going really well and the we should've stuck to our basics, we didn't finish off well and we need to go back to doing the basics right. I'm happy that the girls got opportunities in this multi format series, showed a lot of character. Tough one to swallow, losing to England in the semi-finals in New Zealand, felt we did commit mistakes, hoping that we thought everything will come together but it didn't. The girls have been really working hard, hopefully when the key players miss out, the rest of the players grab the opportunity and make it count with the World Cup around the corner along with Common Wealth games.

Sophie Ecclestone has been adjudged the Player of the match for her splendid 33 off just 12 deliveries and then a couple of wickets with the ball!

Sophie Ecclestone: Was really happy to get those runs in the end but this will certainly boost me up in the future to do well down the order. It's quite a competition down the order, I have seen Freya hit few out of the parks and there's certainly competition. I always tried to tie up one end and that'll build pressure, that'll also ensure that we let the batter make the mistake and get the wickets in the end. Excited for the common wealth games, the preparation has been going well.

England won the game by 38 runs! Tazmin Brits 59(57) | Mignon du Preez 15(11) | Freya Kemp 3-0-18-2 | Sophie Ecclestone 4-0-24-2

It has been a clinical display from England tonight, the batters even after losing a wicket off the very first ball took the attack to the opposition and didn't let the powerplay go waste. Final flurry from Ecclestone powered them to 176 and that set them up for this brilliant win.

England walked off the field with the momentum on their back, South Africa really needed to capitalize the powerplay which they failed to do. Goodall fell early for a beauty from Wong in the very first over. Bosch and Brits got together to put up some sort of a partnership, they did pretty well in the powerplay but things started to fall apart after that.

Bosch succumbs to pressure and then Wolvaardt follows her later which meant South Africa were playing the catch up game from there on. du Preez joined Brits later on but they had too much to do in the final 7 overs or so, South Africa were fallen behind too much and then they kept losing their wickets.

England had a splendid outing with the ball. Freya Kemp impressed on her debut, picking up two wickets and then Ecclestone as usual has been sensational, scalping two wickets as well and then winning the game by quite a big margin.

That's it, England wrap things up as Ecclestone picking up her second wicket of the game. England win the multi-format series here.

Sophie Ecclestone

2 /24

19.6 Sophie Ecclestone to Chloe Tryon, OUT! THAT WILL BE THAT! Yorker fired into the batter at off stump. Tryon backs away and looks to go inside out but realises very late that the ball is aimed at her stumps. She swings anyway but the extra pace means that the ball sneaks underneath her bat and crashes into the stumps! An apt finish to what has been a dominating outing for this England side!

19.5 Sophie Ecclestone to Chloe Tryon, FOUR! Full delivery on leg stump. Tryon gets her front foot out of the way and heaves it between short fine leg and square leg for four

19.4 Sophie Ecclestone to Delmi Tucker, OH! Full delivery outside off stump. Tucker swings like a rusty gate and gets a thick inside edge that then pops up off the pads and nutmegs Jones

19.3 Sophie Ecclestone to Chloe Tryon, full delivery outside off stump. Tryon reaches out for it and powers the ball down the ground towards long on for just another single

19.2 Sophie Ecclestone to Chloe Tryon, full delivery on middle and off stump. Tryon swipes across the line and squirts the ball via the inside edge past square leg for a brace

19.1 Sophie Ecclestone to Delmi Tucker, full delivery on middle and leg stump. Tucker gets down on one knee and heaves it towards deep mid wicket for one more run

Ecclestone [3-0-15-1] to finish off!

South Africa need 48 runs in 6 balls!

Six balls to go for England to wrap this up now. It has been a brilliant display of bowling, batting and fielding from them and the skipper will be mighty pleased with this effort.

1 /40

18.6 Issy Wong to Chloe Tryon, off-pace delivery on a back of a length outside off stump. Tryon gives it the lot but is too early into the stroke as the ball squirms past the flailing bat

18.5 Issy Wong to Chloe Tryon, FOUR! SHOT! Back of a length delivery on leg stump. Tryon makes some room for herself and absolutely clubs it past deep mid wicket for four

18.5 Issy Wong to Chloe Tryon, FIVE WIDES! Full toss way down the leg side. Tryon does not get any bat on it and with Jones up to the stumps, she has no chance either! Five extras!
