South Africa's Shaun Pollock captured three wickets on his return to the team in their Twenty20 match against New Zealand on Friday.

The visitors finished with 129 for seven after losing the toss and being asked to bat.

Scott Styris put up the only resistance amongst the top order as wickets tumbled around him until he also succumbed on 30 when he was caught by Graeme Smith at mid-off off Dale Steyn.

Tail-ender Kyle Mills blasted 32 runs towards the end of the innings to set South Africa a target of 130.

Pollock finished with career-best Twenty20 figures of three for 28 in his four overs while Albie Morkel took two for 29.
