Team Preview of South Africa vs Pakistan 2nd T20I Match Prediction 2024
The first T20I match between South Africa and Pakistan ended up in an exciting match in which South Africa won by 11 runs, but Pakistan did fight till the end.
Pakistan still lacks batting depth as their star player, Babar Azam, once again got out on a duck. The Pakistan front-line bowling unit did amazingly well in the last match as they took three wickets under 28, but then came the innings of David Miller and George Linde, who took the team total to 183 in just 20 overs.
From the Pakistan bowling side, it was Shaheen Shah Afridi and Abrar Ahmed who took three wickets each, but then their spinner Sufiyan Muqeem gave away 53 runs in four overs.
George Linde was the player of the match for his amazing all-around performance, scoring 48 runs in just 28 balls and then taking four crucial wickets at the end phase when Pakistan started to look dangerous.
For the Pakistan team, it was only Mohammad Rizwan who scored 74 runs in 64 balls and anchored the one side until the last over. The middle order once again failed to capitalize, which clearly tells you what kind of weakness the Pakistani side has.
Pakistan might have a few chances in the next match as they can bring in one more pacer in place of Muqeem, and Rauf needs to take wickets as he was the second most expensive from the Pakistan side.
South Africa also needs to look after their extras, as in the last match, they gave 23 extras, which was an issue even in the series against India, where the bowlers gave away too many extras.

The last match on the SuperSports Centurion was between India and South Africa, in which both teams scored 200+, which clearly tells you that it is a great batting paradise, and the boundaries are to shorts, which make it difficult for the bowlers.
“There is a big rain storm that came last night and hope it stays away. Looks like a bit dry. A typical Centurion wicket will have a bit of sheen which is not there. The spinners will have a part to play. The batters enjoy batting here because of the bounce. The boundary size is pretty small; 59 and 64 meters square and 82 meters down the ground,”
inform Shaun Pollock and Ashwell Prince.
Important players for the South Africa Team in the match against the Pakistan Team
1. George Linde was exceptional in the last match and will be crucial once again, especially batting first. He can take wickets and also score some quick runs, which he did in the last match.
2. Heinrich Klassen scored only 12 runs and looked a bit uncomfortable. His recent form is also not too great, but he can be a punt pick for your side.
3. Rassie van der Dussen can be the differential pick for you this time, as last time he got out on duck but can score a century on his day.
Important players for the Pakistan Team in the match against The South Africa Team
1. Babar Azam can be your great vice-captaincy pick in the next match because the ground is small, and you can score a lot of runs. He still averages 34.66 against South Africa in T20I.
2. Mohammad Rizwan was the only player who scored runs from the Pakistan side and now has an average of 83 against the South African side, which is great. Pick him at least as vice-captain because he will take a few catches behind the stumps.
3. Shaheen Shah Afridi took three crucial wickets in the last match and was the most economical. He can be a great pick, and he can be captained if the Pakistan bowls first.
SA vs PAK 2nd T20I Match Prediction 2024
