Hashim Amla's 76 helped South Africa  to victory
South Africa completed a 3-0 clean sweep of the ODI series after beating New Zealand by 5 wickets and 40 balls to spare.
Marchant de Lange had picked 4 wickets as Proteas bowled out New Zealand for just 206, their lowest in the series. Dale Steyn and Lonwabo Tsotsobe had made a vital contribution as they had built pressure with the new ball.
Opener Hashim Amla followed his amazing 92 in game 2 with a crucial 76 from 87 balls before the middle order comfortably chased the target while Albie Morkel struck 41 from 51 deliveries.
