ENG vs SA, 3rd T20I: England take on South Africa in the decider
England and South Africa are set for a competitive conclusion to their three-match T20I series, with the deciding third T20I scheduled for Sunday at Trent Bridge, Nottingham. The series is currently levelled at 1-1 after England stormed back in dominant fashion to level the series with a record-breaking 146-run win in the second T20I.
After South Africa claimed a convincing win in the series opener, England came out all guns blazing in the second T20I. Asked to bat, England posted a mammoth total, with Phil Salt demonstrating his staggering batting pyrotechnics. Phil Salt's 39-ball hundred powered England to 304/2 (20), which South Africa failed to chase, getting bowled out for 158 in 16.2 overs. Heading into the final T20I, England would hope to cap off a marvellous comeback with a series win.
South Africa, on the other hand, will look to forget their heavy defeat and deliver a statement performance to lift the series.
