Set a target of 351 runs to win in their second innings, the home side were always going to struggle to secure a memorable victory, but their top order never even gave them a chance and the rest of the line-up fell apart.
"That was very disappointing. We played some good cricket for a lot of that Test match but let it slip in the last hour or two. All credit to England," said Proteas captain Laura Wolvaardt.
In the 13th over of their chase, the SA team were left stranded at 33/6, with an insurmountable challenge in the final session of the penultimate day's action.
