Predict the outcome of the 1st ODI between South Africa and Pakistan

[MenInG]

No Steyn or de Kock - Pakistan look to be in full strength so good chance for Pakistan to take the lead but will the trauma of the Test defeat play on their minds?

 

[Hasan123]

What conditions can we expect?

 

[Hasan123]

Not hopeful on a batting pitch. But on a pace friendly pitch our batting line up could also struggle.

 

[BreadPakoda]

I remember our wrist spinners completely destroying SA last time around and the batsmen loving the pace on the ball. Shadab and Fakhar should have a good time.

 

[Kohli The King of Chase]

4-1 to SA.

 

[carnish]

Pakistan win definitely

 

[MenInG]

First match will show how bad the scars of the Test defeat are effecting this side.

 

[shaaik]

Our batting vs their bowling... If we bat first we shd aim at least a score of 250-260 to give our bowlers a fair chance and if we are to chase , anything over 230 would be tricky for us..

First match will show how bad the scars of the Test defeat are effecting this side.

Our team does not have enough "ghairat" to carry any scars.
One day is completely independent of the next.
One minute up , next minute down and vice versa

 

[Abdullah]

Want to see some 320 chase attempts by our team

 

[IndianHero]

I predict SA victory as pakistan still has those test matches hangover , I don't see them beating SA in SA

 

[Green Patriot]

They have no DeKock,no Steyn.
There is absolutely no excuse for Pakistan.Their batting depends mostly on Faf and Amla.
I really want to see a Olivier getting a phainta.
I am hoping for a win.

 

[WengerOut]

Professor scared Steyn out of the game

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Lol @ everyone saying Pakistan won’t win, most of the players that’ll be in the xi are those which you all backed.

Put Umar Akmal in there and people will have some kind of hope.
The only player that could take the attack to the South African pace bowlers.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Pakistan should win it easily

Babar, Fakhar, Shadab, Amir and Shaheen will be crucial to our success.
