Team Preview of South Africa vs Pakistan 2nd ODI Match Prediction 2024

The first match was another blockbuster night of cricket, as both teams fought until the last over, but Pakistan clearly dominated South Africa in the last match. The Proteas got a good start with the bat, as the opening partnership went to 70, but after that, Salman Agha came and took four quick wickets to put South Africa under pressure.

South Africa was 70 for none to 88-4, which was disappointing batting by senior players like Van Der Dussen and the other three. Markram and Klaasen then controlled the innings and helped their team post the 239 total in 50 overs.

The Pakistani pacers disappointed the team, taking only one wicket among the three famous bowlers. The South Africa bowling unit started well, taking the wicket of Shafique in the first over of the match and also cleaning up Rizwan on just one run.

Saim Ayub scored 109, and Salman Agha scored 82, which was not out to get Pakistan the first win of the series and make things easier for them. However, the other batters need to contribute some runs, or else the other two matches will slip from their hands.

They are going to share the award. “We were in a tricky position but we took it one over at a time and built it from there. His (Ayub’s) knock set up the game. He was there with the new ball and was running out of partners. The way he played the fast bowlers and scoring a hundred on this pitch was amazing, says Agha. “Obviously it is difficult. We were four down and on this track you need to keep the belief. He (Agha) is more experienced than me and was guiding me,”
Salman Agha is the Player of the Match
