Mitchell Marsh belted South Africa's bowlers for the second consecutive match.abc.net.au/news/australia-beats-south-africa-second-t20-mitch-marsh-half-century/102795172Mitch Marsh has continued his dream run as Australia's Twenty20 captain, punishing South Africa's bowlers for the second time in as many games to rocket his side to a series-clinching eight-wicket win at Durban.
The Proteas have been powerless to find any answers for Marsh, who thumped six sixes in his thrilling knock and has racked up 168 runs off 86 balls for the series without being dismissed. After Travis Head departed for 18, Short's clean striking and Marsh's brute power paved the path for a second successive belting.
Opener Temba Bavuma thumped 35 of South Africa's first 36 runs but his departure sparked a 4-10 collapse from the last three overs of the powerplay.
