Tabraiz Shamsi engineered England's spin demolition as South Africa triumphed by 90 runs in the third T20 at Southampton on Sunday to take the series 2-1.

Wrist-spinner Shamsi picked up 5-24 as England failed to get going in pursuit of the visitors' score of 191-5, getting bowled out for 101 with more than three overs to spare.

Shamsi accounted for Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran and David Willey, who was bowled first ball to set up a hat-trick chance that Chris Jordan survived.

But Shamsi had Jordan trapped leg before wicket in his last over, and then Adil Rashid caught out on the boundary, to finish with 5-24 off four overs.
