Chasing 173 for victory, Australia looked in trouble at 122\/6, before the big-hitting Maxwell took charge with an unbeaten 62 off 36 balls, laced with eight fours and two sixes at a strike-rate of 172.22. He held his nerve to strike the winning runs off the penultimate ball of the chase and roared in delight after conjuring up a remarkable rescue act.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cObviously, it's always nice to win the close ones in T20 cricket, and it was a little bit unorthodox, but I'm very thankful that Max got us over the line. You never know what's going to happen, that's for sure, but he's a world-class player, and he's been so flexible. I think he's batted in three different positions in each game and we're just lucky to have him, he does everything and he was class tonight,\u201d said Marsh.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The man of the match admitted it was \u2018nerve-wracking\u2019 being out there in the middle, and admitted it was nice to steer the team to victory. \"It was a little bit nerve-racking. I think when we lost a couple of wickets in a row, Corbin Bosch bowled a brilliant over to sort of keep the run rate sort of near nine or ten and we were down the two wickets and I probably had to do the majority of the striking but it was it was nice to get a couple out of the middle right near the end.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Player of the series Tim David acknowledged he might not have received the honour of winning the award had it not been for Maxwell's \u2018blinding innings.\u2019<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I think obviously without Maxi playing a blinding innings tonight I wouldn't be standing up here, so there's been contributions from everyone in our team throughout this series and we've had so much fun,\u2019 said David.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Brevis picked up from where he left off in the previous game, where he scored a blistering century -- striking the ball cleanly and clearing the ropes at will to race to a rollicking fifty laced with a four and six sixes. It meant South Africa were well-placed at 108\/3 at the end of the 11th over, with a score of 200 on the cards.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
