"It's obviously nice to contribute. There's a lot of competition within the team at present, which is also a good thing as well. So I'm happy I got the opportunity and managed to put in two good performances,” Hendricks said in a video release by Cricket South Africa.

"Where that leaves me, I'm not sure, but whatever opportunity I get I'll try to do the best as I can. Then whatever happens from there selection wise and where it puts me, it's up to the team, the coaches and the selectors as to where they see me fit."

The final game of the series will be crucial for both teams and they will give it their best to win the series. Hendricks revealed that the team is feeling confident ahead of the third T20I.

"It was disappointing (the performance) after the first game and the talk was about bouncing back from that, which we managed to do,” he stated.

"So this is a big game now but we're quite confident. We back ourselves to go out there and put in another good performance. In saying that, we obviously know that England will come out guns blazing as well, so it's all set up to be a good game..”
