JOHANNESBURG - The Proteas will look to wrap up their Twenty20 series against England on Wednesday evening.

The two teams meet in the final match, with South African having a 1-0 lead.

On Monday, the second Twenty20 international between the two sides had to be abandoned due to rain.

The match was reduced to nine overs and the Proteas were led by a 47 not out from Hashim Amla.

Amla wants to translate his One Day International (ODI) and Test form to the shorter format of the game, ahead of the Twenty20 World Cup in Sri Lanka.

Proteas assistant coach Russell Domingo says Amla is working hard.

“He’s such a meticulous player. I’m sure he’ll score a 140 percent strike rate, which is perfect.”
