The opening stand powered South Africa to 189\/2 in 20 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In response, the Irish were restricted to 140\/9 as the South Africans used six bowlers, three of whom took two wickets each. George Linde (2\/21), Lizaad Williams (2\/30) and Wiaan Mulder (2\/10) were the most successful bowlers for the visitors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Bavuma was given the Player of the Match award while David Miller won the Player of the Series award.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores: South Africa 189\/2 in 20 overs (T Bavuma 72, R Hendricks 69, D Miller 36 not out) beat Ireland 140\/9 in 20 overs (A Balbirnie 27, G Linde 2\/21, L Williams 2\/30, W Mulder 2\/10)<\/p>\r\n",
