England beat South Africa by 19 runs to win the third Twenty20 international at Cardiff on Sunday.
Victory saw England take the three-match series 2-1.
England, sent into bat, made 181-8 with debutant Dawid Malan, in after captain Eoin Morgan took the controversial decision to drop himself, top-scoring with 78.
But from 166-3, England lost their next five wickets for 14 runs.
Dane Paterson, who was twice on a hat-trick, led South Africa’s attack with 4-32.
South Africa, however, lost wickets steadily and were rarely in the hunt to chase down England’s total, with Chris Jordan taking three for 31.
