He took two top-order wickets for 23 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rashid conceded only one boundary in his four overs, a reverse sweep by Reeza Hendricks. He struck back by bowling Hendricks with his next delivery when Hendricks missed a conventional sweep.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rashid had Faf du Plessis stumped off a perfectly-flighted leg-spinner which drew the South African veteran out of his crease.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Jofra Archer took only one wicket, bowling opening batsman Temba Bavuma, but showed excellent control and only conceded 18 runs in four overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>South African captain Quinton de Kock top-scored with 30 before a drive against Chris Jordan looped off the toe of his bat to Tom Curran at mid-on. It was Jordan&#39;s 65th wicket in T20 internationals, putting him level with Stuart Broad at the top of England&#39;s all-time list in the shortest format.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Bowling all-rounder George Linde, who made an impressive debut in a losing cause in the first match in Cape Town, scored 29 off 20 balls to give the innings some late impetus.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
