SPINNER Tabraiz Shamsi got his own back on England’s six hitters as he grabbed three key wickets to help level the T20 series.
Shamsi ended up with 3-27 thanks to three smart catches to remove Jason Roy, Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone.
And that backed up a fantastic match-winning innings by man-of-the match Rilee Rossouw, who enabled South Africa to post a competitive target of 207-3.
In trying to chase the total down, England were bowled out for 149 and beaten by 58 runs to set up a mouthwatering series finale in Southampton on Sunday.
Denied a maiden T20 hundred thanks to yet more clinical death bowling by Chris Jordan, Rossouw had to be happy with 96 not out.
