Victory by 28 runs in a rain-affected fixture saw England enjoy their few hours’ sleep after they levelled the three-match Twenty20 series at 1-1, with one no result.
England’s score of 118 for five was built upon opener Craig Kieswetter’s 50 off 32 balls and an especially rapid 32 not out in 10 balls by Jos Buttler before South Africa finished on 90 for five in a match reduced by rain to 11 overs per side.
“To get on that flight with a win is brilliant,” said Broad. “It was a great confidence boost for the squad. “We have some talent in this changing room. It’s important we believe we can do good things and we’ve got that belief now.”
Meanwhile, South Africa captain AB de Villiers was a disappointed man.
“We’ve played some good cricket and it’s not all doom and gloom going to Sri Lanka.”
