PAK vs SA Match Preview:
Pakistan have the momentum and they will try to make the most of it. Pakistan won the T20 series 2-1 after the Test series ended in a 1-1 draw. The Men in Green suffered a defeat in the opening match of the series before winning the next two matches to clinch the series.
In both the wins, Pakistan’s bowlers managed to restrict the visitors to modest scores. South Africa could score only 110 and 139 runs in the last two T20 matches. Pakistan bowlers would like to continue their good performance and give their team another series win.
The upcoming series will also mark the beginning of a new phase for Pakistan cricket as Shaheen Afridi will begin his reign as captain.
The left-arm fast bowler recently replaced Mohammad Rizwan as the ODI captain and will be keen to make an impressive start to his tenure.
