    Connor Esterhuizen: Wicketkeeper batter Connor Esterhuizen's half-century, followed by a scintilating effort from the bowlers, helped South Africa register a 33-run win against New Zealand in the fifth and final T20I to seal the five-game series 3-2 here at the Hagley Oval on Wednesday.

    Batting first, South Africa posted 187/4 on the scoreboard from 20 overs, with Esterhuizen leading the charge with the bat. In reply, New Zealand were restricted to 154 in 20 overs.

    Coming to bat first after losing the toss, the Proteas scored 43 runs in the powerplay, losing just one wicket of opener Tony de Zorzi (21 off 22). Rubin Hermann and Wiaan Mulder forged a 55-run partnership and took the team to 76 runs at the midway stage.
