SA vs PAK Dream11 South Africa vs Pakistan 2nd ODI 4 April

SA vs PAK Dream11: In a humdinger of a contest, Pakistan held their nerves in the final phase of the match and registered an imperious 3 wicket victory against the Proteas to close off the first ODI.

The two teams will now travel to the Wanderers in Johannesburg to square off in the second ODI. Talking about the first game, Rassie van der Dussen’s maider ODI ton powered South Africa to a fine score of 273-6. In reply, Babar Azam and Imam-ul-Haq set up the chase for Pakistan with a fabulous 177 runs stand for the second wicket. In the process skipper, Azam scored his 13th ODI century, whereas, Imam scored an aggressive 70 off 80 deliveries.

However, after the duo departed, courtesy of a blistering second spell from Anrich Nortje, Pakistan lost momentum and it took them the very last ball to get over the finishing line. It was a cracker of a game and the same can be expected in the second ODI as the hosts would be looking to bounce back.
