Earlier, South Africa posted 165/7 on the scoreboard in the stipulated 20 overs. Aiden Markram was the top scorer with 39 runs from 30 balls, including two fours and as many sixes.
David Miller and Rassie van der Dussen also made valuable contributions to help their side reach a competitive total. Miller scored 28 off 21 balls, whereas Van der Dussen smashed 25 from 18 deliveries.
