After defeating South Africa in the first ODI Pakistan had a golden opportunity to seal the series with another strong performance in the second match. However, the Proteas produced a resilient and commanding batting display that completely turned the tide in their favor, leveling the series in emphatic fashion.
The manner of South Africa’s comeback was nothing short of dominant, leaving Pakistan with plenty to ponder ahead of the decider. It will now be fascinating to see how Pakistan respond to such a heavy defeat whether they can regroup, learn from their mistakes, and mount a serious challenge to reclaim control of the series.

South Africa Squad: Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Quinton de Kock(w), Tony de Zorzi, Matthew Breetzke(c), Sinethemba Qeshile, Donovan Ferreira, George Linde, Corbin Bosch, Bjorn Fortuin, Nandre Burger, Nqabayomzi Peter, Lizaad Williams, Lungi Ngidi, Ottneil Baartman, Rubin Hermann
