Well - Big game next but did Pakistan show enough courage today to make them possible winners for the next game?
 
Seems like SA have the upper hand after the second ODI win but again Pakistan weren't too far away from winning that ODI. I would still give SA the edge.
 
Just hope to God that this Sarfaraz incident doesnt mess the team spirit.
 
If all fit, this is the side I would pick to play the saffers in the 3rd match -

1. Imam
2. Shan (Fakhar needs some time away)
3. Babar
4. Hafeez (instead of Malik, who never bowls)
5. Talat
6. Sarfraz wk/c (sadly)
7. Shadab
8. Faheem
9. Amir/Hasan
10. Shinwari
11. Shaheen
 
Can’t see us winning if we stick with Fakhar.

Changes need to be made at the top order. Shan should replace Fakhar, but knowing the captain and coach, there won’t be any changes until the series has been lost.

This is supposed to be the time where you experiment with players in overseas conditions, giving Fakhar a full series to prove himself is criminal, and there needs to be pressure put on his place.

Put Shan Masood on for the next game, if he does well then keep playing him, this will only be beneficial for Pakistan cricket, as this will make Fakhar work even harder to win his spot back, it’s really not rocket science.
 
SA will win , but "blessed in all facets" will be leading Pak, so maybe we might end up winning 1 more match.
 
you'd have to think south africa now, with all this stuff in the background
 
Pak needs to score 250 and they have the bowling to defend it. SA batting looks vulnerable to pace and spin. Shan should play and should be persisted with the next 3 games.
 
I think the momentum is now with SA though Pak can defend anything above 240 with the current bowling attack and can chase upto 270! anything else it's SA's game.
 
We had a wonderful chance in the last game to put this south african team under pressure but we gave away the momentum. Its with south Africa now..
 
Pakistan really have a mountain to climb here but I hope and wish they pull it off. Team batting first should win it.
 
Definitely South Africa bcoz our mission is already completed by winning 1 odi

One match is enough for minnows
 
Pakistan looking less likely to win but could pip SA if it goes to the end.
