England have completed a 4-0 victory over South Africa in the MTN Castle Lager Test Series. They become only the second team to win a Test Series in SA since 1992.
South Africa who started the day at 237-6 were bowled out for 293, with Harmison picking all the four wickets, to finish with another five wicket haul.
Mark Boucher was unbeaten on 53, while Shaun Pollock made 37 from 85 balls.
England needed just 53 runs for victory. But those runs dint come easily. England lost both their openers as well as Mark Butcher, and at one time it really looked like South Africa could produce a miracle comeback.
But unfortunately for them 53 was too low a target to set, and Vaughan and Bell guided England home in the 14th over.
Steve Harmison was named man of the match, man of the series as well as bowler of the series after a masterful performance in this series. South Africa's Herschelle Gibbs beat England's Michael Vaughan for Batsman of the Series. England's Andrew Strauss won the award for the best catch in the series.
