"Got a little bit twitchy there. It was set up by the bowlers, chasing 140 should be pretty comfortable most times, we got there in the end. I thought we bowled really well at the back end, used the conditions well and pressured them after a good start. It's nice to be making runs, that's my job, so hopefully keep doing it," said Australian man-of-the-match Cameron White, who made 41 not out off 31 balls.

Well done to Australia!
As I mentioned earlier, the Proteas were about 15 runs short of what they needed to post. Credit to David Wiese (3/21) and Robin Peterson (3/28), who made sure South Africa stay in the game. Kyle Abbott's death bowling was also impressive at the end there.

Australia finish on 146/8 after 19.5 overs.
White finishes on 41 not out off 31 balls. He is Australia's hero.

Oh dear, Boyce hits it straight to a fielder at point. They run but Peterson misses the stumps. White was well short of his ground there... but the throw narrowly missed.
1 run needed off 2 balls.

White almost chops it onto his stumps, but it goes into his body and they get a single.
2 needed from 5 balls now.

FOUR! Abbott plays a late cut and flicks Parnell for four. Too wide from Parnell, giving the batsman too much room.
5 runs needed off 9 balls.

Faulkner tries to go big again but is caught by Miller on the long-on boundary for 9. De Lange gets his man.
