Katherine Brunt became England Women’s leading T20I wicket-taker and Alice Capsey took a wicket with her second ball on debut as the hosts brushed aside South Africa by six wickets to extend their lead in the multi-format series to 12-2.
Brunt moved onto 103 T20I wickets – one greater than the now-retired Anya Shrubsole – when she clean bowled Laura Wolvaardt for 21 in the final over of South Africa’s innings of 148-6 at New Road, a total England went on to overhaul with an over to spare as Nat Sciver top-scored with 47.
