The star of South Africa's victory was the player who was playing only his fourth international match. This player is Connor Esterhuizen, who scored a strong half-century and also did wonders in fielding.

After winning the last two consecutive matches, host New Zealand had entered this match with the intention of winning the series but it was not successful. In this match played at Sky Stadium, South Africa batted first and scored 164 runs after losing 5 wickets in 20 overs. Despite losing the wicket of opener Vian Mulder in the first over itself, the reason why the team could reach this score was Connor Esterhuizen.

Connor, who made his debut in the first match of this series, played an innings of 57 runs in 36 balls. This included 7 fours and 3 sixes. This was the first half-century of Connor's career. Apart from him, Rubin Harman played an inning of 28 runs. Other batsmen in the middle order made small but important contributions. Kyle Jamieson took 2 wickets for New Zealand.

Opener Keaton Clarke, who was debuting for New Zealand, did not last long but Tim Robinson and Dan Cleaver batted fast. However, by the 9th over both of them had also returned to the pavilion. After this the Kiwi batsmen kept struggling to score runs. South Africa's spin attack, including captain Keshav Maharaj and Prenlan Subrayan, kept New Zealand in a bind and the entire team was all out for 145 runs in 18.5 overs. Both these bowlers took 2-2 wickets, while fast bowler Gerald Kotjia took 3 wickets.
