Scorer: Sudeep Poojar | Commentator: Ashish Pant

Knight collects the winner's trophy with a beaming smile and is soon joined by her team-mates. A top way to start the South Africa tour and they will want to continue with this run come the ODIs which get underway on December 4 in Kimberley. We will be there nice and early, but till then, this is me Ashish Pant signing off on behalf of Sudeep. Ciao!

Heather Knight: [On the win] Really pleasing. To have that dominant performance was great. We played freely through the series and did that again tonight wit the bat and and ball. [Moved on from the WC] 100% and we have talked about it a lot. We don't want to rip up trees and we want to get back to winning ways. We have been dominant with the bat and want to continue with that. [Performance tonight?] Right up there. The two at the top set the tone early. Lauren was bowling thunderbolts.Was nice to see them [Bell and Filer] bowl together. The bowlers were brave and the batters were comprehensive The batters took the game on and they got the job done. The pitches in the last two games have been great for women's great. The crowds have been great too. [ODI] Time off, we travel down tomorrow, get focussed and get used to one-day cricket.

Chloe Tryon, the South African stand-in captain: We were completely outplayed. England played good cricket. We were not at our best today. 2-0 down you want to find some energy. We wanted to find some character today, but we were completely outplayed. Got some youngsters coming through. We have got some depth in our team and they put their hands up. They have been learning. They have been playing good domestic cricket. They have a lot of belief and want to do the best for the country. Lots of learnings for the series. [Plan for ODI series] Just take a breather, and regroup for Kimberley. We want to reflect on the series and take it forward.

Nat Sciver-Brunt is the player of the series: We are used to ease ourselves into the series. But we hit that ground running and it has been fun. [On the pitches] Little bit different conditions and different wickets. Just learning to play on the different wickets. I am enjoying it. I can use the seam and also continue to communicate with the seam bowlers. We want to keep that bravery and intent. We are looking forward to 50-overs cricket. Has been a while.

Charlie Dean is the player of the match: [Pitch] We knew it was going to be fairly similar to what we had in the earlier game. Both Laurens started brilliantly and they took early wickets. I am starting to come into my own a little more. I am starting to come in the powerplay. I am also starting to park it when I am leaking runs. I feel very lucky to bowl with Ecclestone and Glenn. It was a bit odd without Glenn. We are on that plane, and on to the ODIs. My favourite format.

Do hang around for the presentation

A couple of stat nuggets from Sudarshanan:

- Fourth time that SA have been whitewashed by England in WT20Is - Only their second whitewash at home in T20Is - first time since 2009

8.32pm Wow, that's an absolute drubbing from England. They not only clean sweep the three-match series 3-0, but win this third T20I by nine wickets with 51 balls to spare. Chasing 125, England came out with intent from the get-go. Bouchier and Wyatt-Hodge added 56 off 34 balls for the first wicket before Bouchier fell to a stunning catch by Shangase. Dunkley came in and remained unbeaten on 24 off 17 while Wyatt-Hodge continued with her good run. They added an unbeaten 72 run-stand off 35 balls and took England home with plenty to spare. That's some way to dent the opposition's confidence ahead of the ODI series.

Tryon to Wyatt, FOUR, That's that! Danni Wyatt-Hodge fittingly hits the winning runs and also gets to her second straight fifty. Tossed up on off, she stays leg side of the ball and creams this through covers for a four. England win the third and final T20I by nine wickets.

Surely the last over of the game. Tryon to bowl

Shangase to Wyatt, 1 run, Another chance goes down. Was a very tough one, I must add. Floated fuller on leg, she smashes this over the bowler's head. She stretches and gets one hand up. The ball does not stick

Shangase to Wyatt, FOUR, short, wide and four. Dragged down outside off, she has smashed this over the covers in the infield

Shangase to Wyatt, SIX, ONTO THE BANKS! Length ball on her pads. She jumps down the track and absolutely thrashes this across the line over deep square leg for a huge six
