South Africa have appointed former player Neil McKenzie as batting coach until the end of next month's World Twenty20 in India.

"It's been something that we have been trying to do for a long time," South Africa head coach Russell Domingo told reporters on Wednesday. "We have explored a few options and finally one guy has committed to us, we are ecstatic that Neil will be joining us. "He will work with us until the end of the World Cup.

Australia left-arm spinner Ashton Agar took a career-best 5-24, including a hat-trick, as they thrashed hosts South Africa by a massive 107 runs in the first Twenty20 International at The Wanderers in Johannesburg on Friday. After being sent in to bat, Australia amassed 196 for six in their 20 overs as South Africa struggled with their line and length and missed a number of catches in the field in what was a sloppy display. The home side were in early trouble in their reply when they lost mainstay Quinton de Kock in the first over and it became a precession after that as Agar helped bowl the hosts out for 89, a record low for South Africa.
