Auckland - Arab Today
A half century from big-hitting opener Hashim Amla helped South Africa to 185 for six in the one-off Twenty 20 against New Zealand on Friday.
Amla made the most of the short boundaries at Auckland's Eden Park to smash 62 off 43 balls as the Proteas made a flying start in the first match of their New Zealand tour.
He received ample support from skipper Faf du Plessis (36) and JP Duminy (29) before the New Zealand attack hit back.
The South Africans looked set to make 200-plus but Trent Boult and Colin de Grandhomme put the brakes on with two wickets apiece.
Boult was particularly effective, conceding only eight runs in his four overs.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
