JOHANNESBURG (AP) South Africa captain Faf du Plessis won the toss and put England in to bat in the second and final cricket Twenty20 at Wanderers on Sunday.

Du Plessis said South Africa was more comfortable chasing a score after winning three straight one-dayers and the first T20 game batting second.

South Africa retained the same team that won on the last ball to take that first T20 by three wickets in Cape Town.

England made one change for the final match of its tour of South Africa, selecting Sam Billings as an extra batsman in place of seam bowler David Willey.
