Australia have won the third T20 international against South Africa in Sydney by two wickets this morning to take a 2-1 series win.
The tourists were put in to bat first, but made a strong start as Quinton de Kock (48) and Reeza Hendrick (49) both fell just short of the half-century mark.
However, David Miller was the only other batsman to make it into double figures as South Africa slumped to 146-6.
James Faulkner was the pick of the bowlers for Australia, claiming three wickets for 28 runs.
Aaron Finch made a strong start to the home side's innings, scoring 33 off just 25 balls, but fellow opener Ben Dunk managed just 14.
Australia appeared to be in trouble when Shane Watson (5) and Nic Maddison (4) were both dismissed cheaply, leaving the home side 62-4, but Glenn Maxwell (23) and Cameron White steadied the ship.
Sean Abbott joined White at the crease for the final couple of overs, but the duo needed to score just three from the final over.
Abbott was dismissed while looking to hit the winning runs, but White wrapped it up with just one delivery remaining to give the home side a narrow win.
