Durban, Feb 15: England held on to their nerves and clinched a thrilling two-run victory over South Africa in the second T20I, and in the process took the ongoing three-match series into what can be expected as an exciting decider.

Chasing a mammoth 205-run target on Friday evening at the Kingsmead, the Proteas needed three off the last two balls , but Tom Curran dismissed Dwaine Pretorius and Bjorn Fortuin to secure the win for the visitors.
