England wrapped up a 3-0 sweep of South Africa with a 109-run win in the third one-day international in Leicester – a victory that also sees the hosts take an unassailable 8-2 lead in the multi-format series.
Tammy Beaumont (119 off 107) struck a superb ninth ODI century as England posted a massive 371-7 when batting first in the searing heat, their total just seven runs shy of their record 50-over score.
South Africa made a good fist of the chase on a belting batting track – Laura Wolvaardt (56 off 51), Marizanne Kapp (62 off 54) and Chloe Tryon (70 off 57) all hitting eye-catching half centuries – before eventually subsiding to 262 all out in 45.4 overs.
In an England team shorn of the rested Sophie Ecclestone, spin twins Charlie Dean (3-42) and Emma Lamb (3-42) acquitted themselves brilliantly in her absence, the latter claiming her maiden ODI wicket in the process.
Alice Davidson-Richards (3-35), in for Nat Svicer (also rested) in England’s only other change, also took her first wicket in ODI cricket, four years on from her debut and only previous appearance.
England’s victory means that South Africa, at best, can only share the multi-format series provided they win all three of the upcoming T20 internationals, the series getting under way on Thursday evening live on Sky Sports.
