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

South Africa already sealed their spot in the WTC Final after winning the last match thriller by 2 wickets in which Marco Jansen and Kagiso Rabada’s 50+ runs partnership sealed the game.

The next match can see many changes as South Africa has been playing cricket quite frequently over the last three months, and in this match, they might give rest to some of the main players like Kagiso Rabada.

Corbin Bosch had a great debut as he took 5 wickets and scored 81 runs. It was an emotional moment for the 30-year-old debutant who kept working hard to find his place in the team, and with luck, as many fast bowlers of South Africa got injured, he got the chance.
