The two couples now hold records for most of the T20 century stands (four) at the international level.

The Salt was the Headline Act, in which only 60 balls were not out, there was an innings filled with 15 fours and 8 towering sixes in an innings. It was an innings of raw power and accuracy, of course one of the best by England batsman in T20 cricket. Butler, equally devastating, breaks 83 balls by scoring 83 off 30 balls, increasing boundaries with 8 fours and 7 sixes.

By the time Butler left, England had already placed South Africa on the back leg. The contribution of Jacob Bethel (14 runs 14) and Harry Brook (41 Not Out 21) ensured that the speed never drowned. The hosts eventually posted a collosal on 304/2 in 20 overs, one of the most yogas in T20I history.

South Africa’s batting follows his bowling.

South Africa’s bowling unit ended one evening. Senior Passer Cagiso Rabada (0/70 in 4 overs) and Marco Jansen (0/60 in 4 overs) were separated by salt and butler, which was accepted in about 15 runs per over. Youngster Lisad Williams (0/62 in 3 overs) also suffered at the hands of England’s top order.

The only bright place came from the left -handed spinner Byorn Fortuin, who claimed to have fallen only two wickets while maintaining 52 runs in his magic. But overall, there was no response to England’s batting fireworks in the South African attack.

Chasing a difficult target of 305, South Africa needed a strong start, but the England bowlers never allowed them to settle down. Captain Aiden Marcram (41 out of 20) tried to inject some speed with 4 sixes, while Donovan Pharreera (11 runs 11) and Byorn Fortuine (32 runs 16) played entertaining cameo. However, no batsman can last long to form partnership.

England bowlers kept pressure in the entire protease innings:

  • Jofra Archer (3/25) showed his speed and control by rejecting the major batsmen.
  • Sam Curan (2/11) bowled with discipline at Powerplay.
  • Liam Dawson (2/34) kept things tight in the middle overs.
  • Part-Timmer Will Jack (2/2 in 1 over) stunned everyone with a golden magic, the tail.

South Africa’s innings turned to 158 in 16.1 overs, leading England to win 146 runs.
