5.31pm An innings of two halves. Measured and sedate when Bavuma and Hendricks set things up with half-centuries in a massive opening stand. Then Miller came in and muscles his way through to a wonderful cameo to lift South Africa to a score they'd be delighted with. Could they have shown a bit more urgency? The jury may be out, but South Africa will be happy to just get the job done and go home with a 3-0 scoreline.
