Breetzke's record half-century powers South Africa to series win in Lord's thriller
The Island
|September 06, 2025
Breezy half-centuries by Jacob Bethell (40-ball 58) and Jos Buttler (51-ball 61) went in vain as South Africa secured a narrow five-run win against England in a thrilling contest at Lord's, on Thursday, to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series and securing their first ODI series win in England since 1998.

Set to chase 331 for victory, England lost opener Jamie Smith caught behind off the first ball of the innings. Even as Joe Root gave England the early impetus by taking on Lungi Ngidi and Nandre Burger, Ben Duckett's struggle ensured the hosts couldn't get the necessary move on. He was eventually cleaned up by Maharaj on 14, in the 13th over of the innings.
