19 off the third over and South Africa get the start they were looking for. Ryan Rickelton and Aiden Markram both have begun well and they would be looking to make it a really big powerplay. Ben Dwarshius comes into the attack now.

Powerplay done and Australia have made a comeback in this game with the wickets of both the Proteas openers. The young pairing of Dewald Brevis and Lhuan dre-Pretorius is now in the middle. South Africa have scored 50 in the powerplay but this pitch is not looking like the best for strokeplay so far.

35 runs off 19 balls so far for Dewald Brevis and he is single handedly keeping South Africa in the game. He has taken chances and got a little bit of fortune as well. South Africa would want Tristan Stubbs to join in who is batting on eight off eight right now.

Carnage from Dewald Brevis. He took 25 balls for his half-century and is now batting on 84 off 34. Tremendous knock and South Africa's score has now jumped over 140 in just 13 overs. Brevis has rode his luck but his intent has fetched him boundaries consistently.

Dewald Brevis blasts a 41-ball century. This is an outstanding innings. He is just using all his power and timing to make things look so easy. Tremendous T20 batting. Nine fours and eight sixes for Brevis so far who is now the youngest South African to hit a T20I century.

South Africa finish with 218/7! What an incredible innings from Dewald Brevis who goes back unbeaten at 125 from just 56 balls. This is now the record for highest T20I score by a South African. Magical stuff from the 22-year-old who takes his side to a big total here in Darwin.

A bit of an anti-climatic end to the innings though. Just 25 come off the final three overs as Ben Dwarshius finished with two wickets for just 24 runs in his four overs while his other teammates went for plenty.

Australia need 212 runs in 114 balls

A good start from Kagiso Rabada as he makes Travis Head miss a lot in the first over. Rabada would love some pressure from the other end as well so that when he returns in the next over, there is a big chance of a wicket.

Australia need 161 runs in 84 balls

Tim David is once again on fire and once again he has been dropped by Tristan Stubbs at the boundary. South Africa really need the wicket of David if they want to keep this game in their control. Mitchell Marsh too is looking dangerous and Australia are hoping this partnership makes things easier for them in this steep chase.

Kagiso Rabada takes out the dangerous Tim David and South Africa stop Australia's charge. This could be a game-changing moment. David walks back right after his fifty and his 24-ball impactful innings stops right there. Glenn Maxwell is now joined by Mitch owen who too could prove to be a dangerous batter.

Australia need 84 runs in 36 balls

The Tim David wicket turned the game and it looks very unlikely here that Australia will win this match. The require run rate is now at 14. Just 31 runs off 26 balls since David lost his wicket. Things looking bad for Australia now.

South Africa win by 53 runs to level the series. They complete the job with ease and all credit for this win will definitely go to Dewald Brevis who hit a fantastic 125 not out. Australia bowled out for 165 in reply of South Africa's 218.

RSA 218/7 (20)

AUS 165 (17.4)

South Africa won by 53 runs

Dewald Brevis is undoubtedly the Player of the Match. What a fantastic innings. 125 not out from 56 balls by the 22-year-old in an amazing knock. He gets the award.

This loss ends Australia's streak of winning nine straight games n T20Is.

A good game of cricket and now we will meet in the third T20I. Till then, good bye!
