On a good length, on middle. Brad tries to flick it away but gets an inside edge onto the pads. The ball dribbles through square leg and Brad comes charging back for the second run.

DROPPED! Never easy on the follow-through, and a chance goes down. Following the batter as he backs away, on a nagging length. Evans chips it back towards the bowler with a straight blade. Mokoena is late to react on his follow-through as the ball comes to him at waist height to his right. It clips his fingertips and goes down to long off. They cross.

A swing and a miss. Into the deck, on middle and leg. Kundai Matigimu has a swipe across the line but is cut in half as the ball goes past the inside edge.

Mishit but Kundai Matigimu gets away with it. Bowled on a hard length, on middle and leg. Matigimu swings across for the pull but is rushed and the ball catches the upper half of the blade. It is spooned behind mid on. Jansen runs over his right shoulder and stretches his hands out in front as he flings himself at the ball but it stays out of his reach. The deep mid-wicket fielder backs Daun up as the batters pick up a couple.

Evans was gone with a direct hit. On a hard length, on off. Matigimu stands tall and drops it in front of point before scampering through for a quick single.

Shorter and on middle. Brad pulls it wide of deep square leg for a single.

Slower and fuller, on off. Matigimu pushes away from his body and is beatne past the outside edge due to the turn.

Fires in a full ball, on off. Matigimu knocks it to long off and turns the strike over.

Flat and short, on off. Evans punches it square on the off side and retains the strike with a single. 10 runs from the over. 100 needed off 36 balls.

Begins with the off-cutter, full and outside off. Evans moves across to the off side but does not have the pace to work with it. The ball grazes a bit of bat and then the pad before it rolls towards the keeper.

At pace now, angled into the right-hander, on a short of a length. Evans has a swing across the line but is beaten for pace and wears it on the thigh pad.

Bowled on a good length, on off. Brad backs away and carves it over extra cover. Eathan Bosch covers good ground to his left from long off and slides to save a couple of runs for his side.

Missed out. Loopy low full toss, outside off. Evans pre-empts the scoop and walks a long way towards the off side. He fails to connect and gets hit on the pads.

Overpitched on leg, Kundai Matigimu drills it to long on for a single.

FOUR! This is now Brad Evans' highest T20I score. It also brings up the 50-run partnership between Evans and Kundai. Serves it on a fuller length, on the leg stump. Brad Evans gets down on a knee and nails the sweep shot over the square leg fielder, and finds the gap for a boundary.

OUT! HIGH UP AND CAUGHT BEHIND! Maphaka breaks an entertaining partnership for the ninth wicket. Coming around the wicket, Maphaka angles this one into the batter, rolling his fingers over the ball. Matigimu goes for the big hoick but can only get a top edge, and the keeper, Connor Esterhuizen, does the rest, backpedalling a touch before completing a tidy catch. South Africa are on the verge of triumphing in the finale. Zimbabwe are 133/9.

Toe-crushing yorker from around the stump, angling in and around leg. Blessing Muzarabani's head falls over while trying the flick but gets a leading edge and the ball rolls to the off side.

Full and slow, on the off stump. Muzarabani eases it in front of point with soft hands and they amble across for a run.

Swing and a miss! Short and slanted down leg, Brad Evans swings for pull but misses to connect. Surprisingly, it is not called a wide. May have brushed something on its way to the keeper.

Wide yorker, on the off side, Brad Evans looks to go big downtown, but can only squeeze it back to the bowler.

SIX! High and handsome from Blessing! Juicy full toss from Jansen, on off. Muzarabani takes it on the full and, with a high elbow extension, he dumps it behind long on for a six. He holds his pose after playing the shot and that brings about a loud cheer from the Zimbabwean faithful in the stadium.

Nails the yorker, around off. Blessing hangs deep in the crease and has a big swing at it. Ekes out an inside edge onto the pads and it rolls away on the off side for a single.

FIVE WIDES! Untidy by Connor Esterhuizen. Takes pace off, on a back of a length, pushed across the right-hander. Evans lets it pass. The ball bounces in front of Connor Esterhuizen and nutmegs him before racing past short third.

SIX! Connects, and connects so well. FIFTY FOR BRAD EVANS! That's his maiden T20I half-century. He has been one of the bright spots for Zimbabwe in this tri-series and is enjoying himself out there. Into the slot, on middle, Brad Evans gets his front leg out of the way and absolutely carts it over deep mid-wicket for a cracking six.

FOUR! Blazed away into the gap! 150 up for Zimbabwe. Full and outside off, Brad Evans brings his bottom hand to play and crunches it through deep extra cover, beating long off to his left for a boundary.

OUT! CAUGHT! And it's all over. SOUTH AFRICA WIN THE TRI-SERIES. They beat Zimbabwe by 48 runs! Length ball, angling away, and Muzarabani goes hunting for the big shot once more, playing it across the line. This time the bat face turns at the point of contact, and the ball balloons off the leading edge, high into the sky toward cover. Bjorn Fortuin at extra cover calls for the catch, sees the ball like a hawk and settles under it to take a fine catch. Jubilation in the South African camp as they have kept their unbeaten record against Zimbabwe intact in T20Is.
